Some say that reliability is the best ability. We don’t care to argue. NBA teams have similar priorities.
You could hire the most famous band in the world to play at your wedding – if you can afford it. If they don’t show up, you’ve wasted your money. Realistically, you should have gone with the local band.
A player may be talented – even special. If that player is scarcely available to play, it’s a moot point.
For example, look at Robert Williams III of the Boston Celtics. This is an exciting young player: people would love to see him succeed.
With that said, his body is unreliable. The Celtics could seek a big man this summer as a result.
Could Clint Capela of the Atlanta Hawks be that big man?
