I remember last season after the Kyle Anderson incident and Jaden McDaniels injury, people were calling for Gobert or KAT to be traded. But this season they seem to be on a roll, team chemistry and moral is at an all time high and everyone seems to be gelling well together. We have one of the best defenses in the league, and our offense got significantly better with people finding their fit. Is it too early to say that the Gobert trade was a success? What needs to happen for us to confidently say it was a success?
Kind of a vague question, but I hope it makes sense
It wasn’t a mistake. We just overpaid.
He can be a really good fit for our team and we can also overpay for him. It’s not one or the other. This season will definitely help get rid of the “worst trade of all time” narrative but either way we overpaid.
