That's Mara.
If it were I and I had Mara on my team I would go all in and revamp everything on both sides of the ball to fit him even when he's not on the floor. The team is going to play a certain way when he's on the floor and when he's not. It's a gamble but I thought that's the kind of upside Mara had/has. Of course all of this is predicated on the idea that Mara will get stronger and keep improving. If I were the coach and Mara wasn't all in as well then I might do what Cronin did and let him go. If he remained I would have continued developing Mara in the same manner that Cronin was. I thought the way Cronin was training, teaching, coaching, and using Mara might not have been taking full advantage of Mara's unique skills and abilities but it was making Mara a better basketball player and highlighting some of Mara's skills while incorporating him into Cronin's system.
