Didn't say that at all. It's a legitimate concern. Not sure how you got that I wouldn't want them coming back at all. Chemistry is an important and sometimes delicate thing. You have 3 projected lottery picks sitting on that bench who are all used to being the 1st option, along with veterans who've busted their asses the first 6 games to keep things afloat. The longer this goes on, the harder it becomes for those guys to assimilate. It's a simple fact
Ugh. I never claimed that you were saying that, I posed it as a question so as to make a point. I don't disagree, the team will be different so the coaching staff and players will have to work things out and find out who the team is when healthy. I just don't think it's this major thing that will harm the team, I see it as more about figuring out how the pieces fit together. It's just not worth worrying about because the alternative is not getting them back at all. You know what I mean? There's no reason to view it as a damned if you do, damned if you don't, no-win situation here.
There's no evidence that 3 lottery picks is automatically going to be the big thing that harms the team. The vast majority of these high draft picks are willing to be part of a team and by all accounts Bolden, Tatum, and Giles are excellent team guys. And there is a lot of basketball to be played January through March, a lot. There's still going to be plenty of time to figure out how to fit the pieces together.
