Like that was the thing that they were missing.
They didn't go to Carter for that.
kelton proved to be too small for that to work with him um and anyway and just getting specifically to kelton the issue with kelton in in these last couple series was just that he drove to score every time he didn't pass out of it and i think he would have been much better if on a lot of these drives once he hit traffic he got out of it and i didn't think that was that much of an issue in the regular season but in the postseason and maybe it's because
the regular season he would just be able to always get to the rim and then he was always the first person in the air after he missed the shot it would put it back every time and he just didn't get those rebounds against hartenstein and mitchell robinson and those guys because you're growing up against elite you know rebounding players there so
You know, Kelden needs to have this as a wake-up call to be like, I need to be able to get off the ball earlier and let the ball circle back to me eventually in the possession rather than just going, you know, bowling a china shop every single time.
And if they feel confident he can do that, then they will probably be okay.
But I don't see him getting extended at this point because at Champagny's age and his skill set,
He was the guy that they could go to for shots and latent games, except for some reason, not the end of the season when everything was on the line, they didn't go to him there, but like champagne proved to be the shooter that they really needed out there.
And I'm pretty confident that they're going to be able to make an arrangement for a deal where they can opt out of the team option and get them signed up for another three or four years.
Yeah, we'll see what they can do with the deadline.
But you're right, there's no market for Fox just because of how few teams need that specific type of player.
And none of them have the financial flexibility to do it.
So, especially after what we just saw, they need him to go back out there and remind everyone like he was so integral to their team this year.
his big function for the team was that he was the one guy that could really run that offense.
Like Castle, like we saw what happened against, was it, was it Minnesota or OKC?
When Castle had to be without Fox, he had 20 turnovers in those first two games.
It was a record.
Harper,
I mean, listen, man, he might win MVP in two years with the rate that he's growing.
Who knows?
