Gordon was problematic for us. He essentially would have cost us 2 1st rounders. 1 to get him and 1 to offload him in the offseason. Craig fits in with the continuity theme of the season. He's already familiar with most of the guys. Gives us 4 solid players for the 3-4 spots. Still holding out hope some PG help in the buyout market.

Solid move. Craig knows the system and fit in really well with the team.

I'll miss the idea of Stix, too bad the FO misjudged and we wasted a pick like that. I think he's a solid big, hope he does well in Indy.

If Gordon gets bought out and just signs with us, that solves a lot of those problems. Maybe that's the hope.

It balances the roster a little better, but I think they still need backcourt help.

I highly doubt that happens, he still has next year on the books, so he's still a salary filler for an offseason trade.

BTW, can't believe Spurs traded Derrick White. 😳

but too small to be a 2 guard. Basically just a 3rd string PG.

Maybe we are really worried about Payne not coming back soon.

Holiday is better than Payton…not a big deal, but he’s another guard. Probably either Payton or Nader leaving? Possibly Frank if he’s out for the season?

Holiday's a smaller, speedier guard. I'm secretly wondering/hoping we flip Payton back to NY and Holiday is here to take his place as 3rd stringer.

Or hopefully both?

Heard it's for Payton.

Honestly if he can shoot, somewhat run the point I'll be happy.

Payton was trash.
