It's taken a while, but the trade for Martell Webster finally came back to bite us.

I had a feeling this was a development year from the beginning of the season, so I fully expected to see a youth movement. I think LaVine could be special if he keeps improving like the past month or so. He really started from zero in the way of NBA ready BBIQ, so even small strides have me hopeful this is just the beginning of his rise. I could see Westbrook type improvements in the coming 18-24 months.
At point guard, the game is still moving way to fast for Lavine. He only sees what's in front of him, and even then not so well. Otherwise I like where he is headed. His defense is improving and he has some natural skill at the shooting guard position. As I've been preaching all year - patience.
