Tough to find a silver lining in all of this.
Reminds me of Portland 10 years ago. Brandon Roy was among the best players in the NBA, Aldridge looked like an excellent #2, and Oden/Batum held even more promise than Tatum/Brown. Looked like they had it made for a long time. Fast forward a couple of years... Roy and Oden are out of the league with injuries, Batum plateaus as a mediocre roleplayer rather than a star, and Aldridge is left to captain the ship alone.
Coming into this year, we had Kyrie, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Horford, and two tantalizing picks. Now, we have Brown, Hayward, and Tatum left. All three have lost some luster after a challenging season. Kyrie and Horford appear to be gone, and one of the picks turned into a mediocre end-of-lottery selection rather than the premium asset we thought we had. It's hard to watch a masterful rebuild hit an iceberg like this.
