There is a belief that too much of anything is harmful to your health. It is imperative that NBA teams adhere to the same principles as well.
What is your favorite meal to eat? Regardless of what it is, you should not eat it three times a day, seven days a week. It will eventually become too much for you to handle.
There are certain types of players that are especially valuable to a team, but there is no such thing as too many of them. Although it can be difficult to know where to draw the line, it is important to do so.
As an example, the Brooklyn Nets have a lot of 3-and-D wings on their roster. It is interesting to note that the Toronto Raptors have a platoon of playmakers who are plus-sized.
With Fred VanVleet being potentially at risk of departing in free agency, it could present an opportunity to replace him with Simmons to add significant size on the perimeter.
Is there a chance that each team can double down on their preferred player archetype this summer?
