It’s more fun to be right and not disappointed or to be wrong and happy, instead of being wrong and disappointed.

Strongly disagree. It's better to have hope. But some enjoy wallowing in despair. Have at it.

Eeyore would be proud of this place.
Love, Hurts.

B for Maluach - fine with him but I don't think I would have passed on Bryant.
This will be a good “what if” going forward.
Precious Achiuwa, Dalano Banton, Batum, Chris Boucher, Amir Coffey, Tre Jones, Laravia, Mamukelashvili, Tre Mann, De'Anthony Melton, Minott, Nance, Chris Paul, GP2, T. Prince, Reed, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Tate, Watford, Yabusele

I agree with you for life in general. But after 58 years of this franchise, I’ve decided to dial back on the hope and just be happy if anything good happens.

I don’t have a problem with having both of them…for me it was just using basically all of our available assets to acquire 2 5s that at the moment can’t play together.
Uhh... and that's not a concern? Also considering the need to pay Williams if he actually delivers.
Sorry I wasn’t clear…that is my concern. Having them isn’t a concern…spending all our assets to fill one position when we had multiple needs is a concern.
Ah agreed then. That's basically my stance. Give me either Williams+Bryant (insert your alternative here for #10), or Maluach+assets+better cap flexibility.
You guys are losers. @Mori Chu included. His mama's a real winner though

I can't wait to see them develop together. I'm not worried about their being enough PT for them to both grow their games. And I'm not worried about them being so damm good that we're stuck with two amazing assets at the same position. I would LOVE to have that problem where they're too damn good to bring one off the bench, and that's even assuming Maluach can't play the 4 next to Mark.

It's a pity party up in here!!!

Cheers, Saucy! I'll bring the whiskey. I'd rather party with you and TOO.
