All of those make perfect sense. That was back when it was still unclear if we were gonna tank or not. You really think Keyonte would be starting if we'd turned the season around and looked like a playoff team? HELL no.
Anyway, that's ancient history and we're obviously tanking, with a fire sale of players coming up.
Key may yet become a good player (and I hope he will) but right now he's one of the worst on the roster. That's not an opinion, it's a fact. And it's OK. I don't really get the mindset where there's a strong need to treat a rookie as a savior.
