If I recall Kidd and Hill tied for ROY back in 95. Perhaps that has stayed with Kidd and is a motivation for him helping Flagg chase? Also can't hurt selling tickets when the team is tanking.

Yeah, as a fan, when your team sucks, it’s nice to at least have a potential superstar to watch.
 
Kon was still better and has the best pure shooting stroke to enter the league since Steph. Kon reminds me of a thicker Klay.
He reminds me of Brandon Roy with a much better jumper (at least offensively - not sure Kon's as good a defender, certainly not on Klay's level yet). And Roy was a GREAT player before he got hurt.

Not sure how high Kon's upside is because he doesn't have superlative length or athleticism (by NBA standards). But I still could easily see him making some All-NBA teams and his floor is extremely high. He's arguably already good enough, as a rookie, to be the 3rd best player on a contender.
