Laurie may be a 1 trick pony, but hes as elite as can be at that 1 trick. Hes a 7 foot shootah. Thats rare.
All else can be groomed and taught. No different than Bender, whos awful at everything. Or Chriss, who at least has athletic upside. You guys are so patient for them to learn, but not Laurie, whos already way ahead of both?
In 5 years, whos the better player: Bender or Laurie?
Easily Laurie. Then take Laurie.
Again, he is Ryan Anderson / Channing Frye. That is his ceiling. That is what a 1 trick pony is.
No way you take that at 4.
