    Yet he was the only guy lucky enough to be with a team that won a ring just in his second season rt, ofc only after klay came back to play again since 2019.

    I don't think any of those guys would have been a great fit TBH, but at least they could have used them in a trade to improve their roster tenfold like the Kings did when they moved on from Hali.

    I get that all of them are significantly better than Wiseman & the Warriors were stupid for drafting for fit for need instead of taking the best player available.

    Yeah, and even then Bane essentially would have been in the Klay role, and it looks like GS is not ready to move on from Klay. Also, they had Poole developing on the bench, who showed flashes in that '19-'20 season, so they already had a young guard with promising talent. Their decision made a whole lot of sense at the time and they did not have the benefit of hindsight.
