Don't forget, Andre Miller was supposed to take that young core to the playoffs but they were so dysfunctional when he got there he basically gave up on the team in the first month.

Respect your content but for Quentin Richardson you are way off with this one bro. I don’t think his growth was stunt rather he optimized his game the most he could at each level and became a reliable professional that could rebound , shoot the 3 , and play tough defense. A Chicago high school basketball legend, he’s style of play embodied his city, tough around the basketball, a nack for rebounded , and playing very efficient offensive lay. And this is only at roughly 6’3”. He went to college and developed the 3 point shot but still played around the basket. He used the new tools to be relevant for 10 + years.
