They look underrated.

 

Parker was a great get in FA. Injury prone but finished the season strongly. Dude is immensely talented. So a lil health and that young team should thrive a bit.

Parker cannot play the 3 - defensively he's an abortion playing the three. His quickness, following 2 major knee surgeries isnt there and his first step explosiveness is a shell of what it once was. He's a really fundamentally sound, and knows how to use his body to get positioning and get his shot. That said, he cant play the 4 on this team with laurie developing... so he's stuck playing out of position. Lauri is a bad defender, as is parker. The team might be the worst defensive team in the NBA.

 

They will be exciting offnesively at times but they have major injury risks, a bad coach and bad defense.

His interview on the Bernstein show was telling about what he thought of defense - something his teammates need to do because it’s not his concern.
