I do just think the things that have occurred to this point have been bad enough that it's like... I gave you your chance. You got the first part of the season to the vets and you didn't do what you needed to do. So we do have to try to win some games here. Like this isn't just about getting younger. This is about winning, period. Like we need to win. And that.
to me, can help out in that situation. I don't know if it's the perfect solution. Obviously, those guys come with downsides. Andre Jackson Jr., not a great offensive player. A.J. Green, still trying to figure things out defensively. You're going to have to do some of those things, but I think

There's all of that, and then there's also just the simple fact that every Lakers fan in the world will tell you Torian Prince played way too much last season. He played 2,100 minutes. Dyron Hamm played him way too often. So on and so forth. The plan in Milwaukee was not for him to start and play 35 minutes a night. It was for him to come off the bench.

You have to be open to everything.

Like you're not in a spot where you can say like, well, I want to win with the vets. You're one in six. So you're going to have to be open to some ideas, even if those are things that you might not be all that, you know, all that big of a fan of.
