Boston Vs. Philly Rebuilding Plans

[ChiefDK]

Philly is making a huge mistake. Answer some questions:

Does Glen Davis have a career without KG and Paul Pierce's tutelage? He weighed 400lbs in college.

Does DaJuan Blair have a career if he isn't on the Spurs?

Does Jared Dudley have a career without learning from Steve Nash?

Sacramento has been trying the "no quality vets" strategy for years, and is a consistent failure. The Mavs famously drafted Kidd, Mashburn and Jim Jackson, and were terrible: that team had no one to teach those guys to win. When has Toronto had success? When quality vets like Lowry, and Jose Calderon have been there to lead the team. How was Cleveland doing with Varejao the only veteran voice?

You heard it here first: Thad Young isn't the leader Philly needs. They will be bad for years due to this strategy. I agree that the 97 season destroyed Walker. He could have been much, much better.

The Celtics will be more successful than Philly. Mark it.

Totally agree. Which is why I think it was good to hold onto a veteran like Bass. Having Rondo around helps too.

I can actually see Boston making the playoffs as a 7 or 8 seed next season without any big acquisitions just through proper development of young players. Philly will be bad indefinitely.
