Craig Randall had another big game for the 36ers…27 point and hit 5/11 from 3…though they did lose to the Thunder by 30+. Tre Mann was 8/10 from 3.

Wonder how long until Randall is in the nba. He looks legit.

Did I hear correctly during the broadcast that Randall went to Shadow Mountain?

I did some digging on him after they played the Suns. He put up numbers in the G-League last season and won the MIP award. However, he didn't make any of the All-NBA G-League teams.

I'm pretty sure he's under contract only through the end of the NBL season which concludes in February 2023. I think he'll have to do really well in the NBL to have a shot at coming back and being picked up by an NBA team in the Spring. But who knows? Maybe one of the tanking teams will give him some burn.

I think he has a clause in his contract that he can leave for the NBA at any time, even during the NBL season. So if any NBA team wants him, they can have him.

Ya, moved to AZ during his senior year. Grew up in Ohio.

Idiots. Just won the NBA title and can't even keep it together for one offseason.

Green has always been that way…couldn’t keep it together on the court either. People talk about CP3 being difficult to play with, I feel like Green might be worse.

There’s no way you can keep Draymond on the team after that…


How we got him on the Suns?? I’m down for Crowder, Saric and Craig but after this video I wonder if they just release him and we can get him that way with our TPMLE.

There’s no way they release him with 52 million on the books. I’m not sure adding him to CP3 would work anyways. I think there’d be problems and he’d probably not fit with Ayton either. He’d be great alongside Book/Cam/Bridges. Still I think you have to trade for him if it’s just Crowder and contracts going to them.

I don't think there's any way they release him and just eat his contact. I do think that GSW must have leaked this video so that they can trade him and have some cover. Especially if they trade him for what amounts to a salary dump

Draymond is expiring right? If it’s just a swap of expiring contracts I’m down. Not sure I would I give a 1st unless it’s heavily protected like 1-20. We be the best defensive team in league by far.

No way Jones trades for him, especially after the video leaked.

Is TNT going to fire/punish him?

You’re supposed to just push. How do you knock out a 23 yr old kid who is 9 years younger than you? Pretty shitty. He’s not exceptionally a bad dude. We’ve had nba stars like him for decades. This is the world we live in now with modern media. I hate that I’d want him on our team but it would be worth a shot. Dray isn’t going to be traded somewhere he doesn’t want to go.

I don't know, if I'm Jones, it's not like Draymond's done anything illegal or immoral (that I know of). He got in a fight at practice and is a bit of a hot head. I think a team with a strong culture and leaders, like I believe we currently have, can totally handle that.

He can play some small ball 5, can handle the bigger defensive assignments that we're losing with Jae. He's a good passer. I think he'd be a good fit.

It's just a fight in practice. Those have been happening since the league began.

And the Warriors aren't about to give him to us for cheap.

It's not illegal to punch a guy in the face? :lol:
