[QUOTE="kg01, post: 399542, member: 11"] [USER=75]@jayparr[/USER] You're giving up on them way too early. Admittedly, nowadays, FR are starting to be a bit further along. Wright and, to a slightly lesser extent, Cole seem like FR from several years ago in the sense that they aren't likely to contribute at a high level early on. Nothing necessarily wrong with that but, today, they appear [I]waaaay[/I] off the pace. Especially if you, incorrectly (IMHO), compare them to 1-and-done types. In reality, they're probably right where they [B]should[/B] be expected to be. Next year they'll be a bit better. By year 3 (likely earlier), they'll both be very good contributors. That's the normal progression that gets distorted when we see guys like Bagley come along. Well, our guys aren't expected to be NBA-caliber for 3 years or more whereas Bagley could probably play there now. That's a [I]huge[/I] leap. Doesn't mean our guys are trash. Just on a very different development cycle. That said, I'm not exactly 'ok' with us not swimming in the 1-and-done stream (I actually hate it but that's a whole other discussion). I [I]understand[/I] the process though. [/QUOTE]
