    We would not have amen thompson or Fred vanveleet, pretty sure we would have traded amen for a mid level vet because silas couldn't communicate with young players.

    Amen Thompson and Cam Whitmore would have been drafted by Stone. Silas would badly misuse them.

    He's the reason we have all those guys, given he was tricked into a tanking situation

    If Silas was here Jalen Green would still be one of the worst defenders in the league.

    Silas was bought in to get told what to do while tanking. That's it.
    Mission accomplished.
    If some folks didn't get developed enough.
    So be it.
    ALL is good, now.
