I think so.

I’m not saying Bennett won’t ever become a decent, or even good player, but I’m thinking that the powers that be in Cleveland, more than once, have had visions of what could have been had they had the foresight to draft Vic, instead of Bennett. Cleveland with Irving, LeBron and Love ( I think he eventually ends up there ) and their supporting cast would be considered a pretty imposing ensemble, I think most would agree, but imagine that team with Vic playing along side of those three. Guarantee you somebody in Cleveland’s front office is playing the, ” I told you so ” card. lol

A very wise man ( my father, who, while no longer with me, still continues to look smarter every day ) once said, ” if foresight was as good as hindsight, we’d all be better off by a damn sight “, I guess the guy that pulled the trigger on Bennett instead of Vic is playing that card against the I told you so card. lol

Who said “The will to prepare is more important than the will to win”. That resonates so true in watching this fine young man.
Go Hoosiers!

Lol! That’s awesome!

CTC is a big-time talent evaluator as well.
