They don’t have a lot of vets…I looked for vets that could help us, especially on expiring deals and the only guys are basically Biyombo and Derrick Rose..I could actually see us trade for Biyombo

Wouldn’t mind bringing back Biz. Our back up center minutes rn is pretty shitty. Maybe Bol’s play is sustainable but even if it is, I’d still like a defensive rebounding big that we can throw out there in a pinch.

I don't see the upside in that move. Feels like Eubanks is just a meme around here now and isn't getting credit when he plays well.

I’d be reluctant to waive Drew, but is anybody going to miss Damion Lee? How do we have room for another SG?

All of these SGs and shooters and we're near the bottom on 3PT attempts. What in the world was the plan? Let's beat every team by dominating the mid game? :roll:

You can’t blame them right? It’s working so well for them.

Golden State down 41 at home to the Pelicans.

Kerr is finding out what it's like when you don't have the horses and don't have much to be optimistic about.

Sounds like Kerr should join his Buddy Bob Myers next year in Phoenix.

I don’t know if that is a full-time gig. Thought it was just to help select a coach or something.

Could be…I don’t really pay attention to it, just remember hearing it

Sounds like he's consulting on their GM search and how to find the right people to build the right culture.

And while JJ missed on Haliburton (which we never hear the end of), Myers whiffed taking Wiseman 1 pick ahead of LaMelo and Kuminga 1 pick ahead of Franz Wagner in back to back years. Those two high lotto picks were supposed to extend the Ws window with their Big 3 and instead it's been slammed shut while he jumped ship.
