Kostas was better in theory than he was in reality. He has tons of upside, and hopefully he'll get there, but too often he was lost or dis-interested. Some of that falls on CAG, some on Kostas, where the line is drawn who knows.

As TA111 said, the game has changed, there isn't a ton of true post up, low post players these days (and neither was Kostas) Why? Because the most efficient shot in basketball is the driving layup/dunk (or as Dax Dunbar too often said "he lays it up for the slam, thank god Larry returned). The 2nd most efficient shot is the 3 pointer. Teams have found success by spreading the court, attacking the lane and kicking the ball back out for 3s, its what made most of Archie's teams successful, he only had 1 year (RIP Steve) with a true, solid back to the basket presence down low). The more players you have on the court that can drive, dish and shot the better your offense is going to flow (in theory). Move the ball, move it quickly, create lanes and attack. Don't just throw it into the post and see if they throw a double team at you.
