I know that it’s early. I just have this nagging feeling that Scoot isn’t it. In the games he played he was ok. I didn’t see anything that was spectacular. Am I underrating Scoot?

    It is silly to project his entire career based on a dozen games. It was equally silly to talk about him as a top 3 candidate for ROY. To be honest, I got caught up in the irrational enthusiasm phase as well. It’s time for all of us to get past it.

    What we really needed was another Dame or Brandon Roy. No such player was available, so we put our money on an unscratched lotto ticket. Was that better than trading the pick for a vet who wouldn’t have moved the needle? I would argue it was. Did we gamble on the right lotto ticket? I have no idea and neither does anybody else.

    Rant over.
