I never said Lauri was Larry Bird. But his versatility as either a high-end 3 or 4 is, imo.
If you want to criticize that point, be reasonable & keep it to that point. Truth is, athletically & defensively Lauri makes better sense as either an NBA 3 OR 4 than did Larry Bird.
Bird was a star despite some rather glaring weaknesses at either of those positions. There were obvious reasons, after all, he fell to Indiana State.
