Hopefully Coulibaly becomes a stud so we can move onto a new narrative.

Kawhi Leonard didn’t know how to shoot a basketball.
George Hill helped lead a win-now team to back to back ECFs against one of the most dominant teams ever assembled.
Where’s the haunting?
And let’s just say that the Pacers player development team is as good as the Spurs, Kawhi wouldn’t have grown up surrounded by HOFer Tim Duncan, HOFer Tony Parker, and HOFer Manu Ginobili in Indy. So, sure, maybe Kawhi makes the Pacers somewhat better, it’s still not enough to be serious contenders in that alternate universe.
Jesus Christ, Kawhi and PG have been teammates for years and can’t even compete together. Why would it have been different back then?

It’s an incredibly dumb trade in hindsight, IF you choose to ignore the fact that the Pacers only ever had Kawhi for 5 minutes because the Spurs told them who to pick
