He wasn't the final piece
The final piece was meant to be Fultz. The 76ers wanted another guard
Or, more accurately, the final piece of the process would have been using their accumulated assets to acquire another star
Which they used on Butler, and Tobias Harris and his max
You'd still prefer Lamelo. He's a great shooter and very talented and active passer, even if his PnR heavy style doesn't fit as well
I believed that as well. I still believe it.
