No, but I did say he’d be perfectly capable of stepping into the rotation when Gallo went down, which is what has happened, while others wanted to trade for Rudy Gay.
I
still want to trade for Rudy Gay. The team needs a minutes-eater for the dead of winter. Tatum and Brown are playing 36-38 minutes a night which isn't ideal over a full season, guys are going to get banged up over time, and Gay is big enough to cameo as a big in a small-ball lineup a la Grant.
He fits into the Juancho TPE and being able to aggregate Gay and Gallo this summer lets Brad do the same "matching salary + this seasons' first" trade that's netted the C's Horford, White, and Brogdon in three consecutive league years while leaving the future firsts balance sheet essentially clean.
I just don't think that Ainge is going to be eager to salary-dump Gay anymore, because somehow Utah's in sole possession of first place in the West the week of Thanksgiving.
