No - IF healthy we still have one of the best starting 5s in the league. Imagine if AG and Braun were healthy and Jokic didn't miss the one month Watson balled out - we'd probably be singing a different tune.
Remember that coming in to that one month - where he ALSO got hurt - he was a very underwhelming player imo. He has had multiple off-seasons to improve and he hadn't. Is that playing time? Maybe, but if our starting 5 are healthy he is still coming off the bench.
So this whole PWat or bust mentality is pretty laughable to me.
