Because we’re in the now. It’s hard to evaluate the future.
I can say in 3 years Lively is going to be the better than Embiid and you would have to call me nephew and I would agree.
Meanwhile in 3 years, lots of things can happen. Like injury.

And across all sports, I think people disregard how quickly players can fall off a cliff from one season to the next. But specifically with basketball, most guard skill sets require speed that very very few 32+ year olds maintain. Happened to Kemba super fast, I think it’s even more apparent with smaller guards since they need the speed to beat rim protectors.
