After drafting both guards, Kahn told ESPN’s Ric Bucher that he’s convinced they can co-exist in the same offensive set.

This is naive on his part. Though he believes his plan will come to fruition, I think he will figure out the mess he created, and trade Rubio.

Many teams want him, and though he is salivating over his potential, he can’t pass up a chance to right this wrong.

To not only rebuild his shot reputation as a bone-headed, inexperienced front-office power, but to benefit his team rather than add confusion to an otherwise bright future.
