    Highly talented people rise to the top quickly.

    There's a lot to be said for 'working your way up', but elite talent can skip a few steps.

    Also, it's not hard to standout when the majority of your peers suck ass. Maybe if his peers knew a thing or two about coaching Brad would blend in with those around him, rather than sticking out as exceptional.

    Unpopular opinion: Hayward and Irving are NOT Boston's two best players.
    (Tatum and Horford.)

    ...but even if so, this will matter less. Carmelo had enough clout that the coach had to go along with his insistence on always starting. Schroder can be benched with zero repercussions. Schroder's a lot like Reggie Jackson - he's just there in case Westbrook misses a few games.

    But Melo had one year left, Schröder has three.

    There were some pretty good predictions in this thread!
    Some pretty bad ones too, of course.
