1. Danny Ainge undervalued the hell out of Vanderbilt
2. A lot of teams should be embarrassed for not trying to get him if his value was this low, they have much better assets.
1. he was part of a larger trade bundle since he makes jack shyt. Utah got a lightly protected first 4 years from now and an expiring They didn't walk away with nothing.

2. for everyone who loves Vando (and there's a lot to love about Vanderbilt), they also didn't see what made him expendable.

We know he can't shoot but despite that, he's a high value hustle guy and gets in position where he doesn't hurt his team as much spacing wise. I look at someone like Herb Jones who hurts his team offensively but Vanderbilt doesn't force 3s and is willing to cut consistently. He would help any contender.

I'm not saying he doesn't. It's not even the lack of spacing. It's that he's light on his feet, so when he runs into someone else who does what he does, but is stronger, he doesn't have another way of helping. That's what happened to him last year and before you know it he was averaging 21 minutes on the smallest team in the league.

They did this while going 6/34 from 3 :picard:

While mavs were 20/49 from 3

This is an indictment on modern hoops. These nggas don’t even run plays just hunt for 3s. Also a reminder of how barren Dallas roster really is (which is apparently what they want, to increase Luka’s usage even ).

And an indictment on Kyrie’s lack of playmaking. They gotta bring Wood off the bench and he only play 20 minutes bc kyrie and Luka taking all the shots
