So, yeah, Niko kinda stunk up the joint in the playoffs. Maybe a coach with a modern offense could've mitigated that?
I remember October 6th like it was yesterday. On the NBA calendar, early October can only signify one thing: preseason. Why do I remember a preseason game so vividly? It was the first time I watched Nikola Mirotic in a Bulls uniform, and it only took me that one game to realize that Niko belonged.
Some rookies take time to develop (see: McDermott, Doug). Other rookies need proper grooming to -- hopefully, one day -- fully develop (see: Snell, Tony).
