I honestly don't think Jones is interested in changing things up.

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.

This is how I feel about it as well. Sure they'd have welcomed a buyout guy who was eager to join the team, but I don't think they were ever really trying to get someone.
Maybe it'll be a complacent mistake, but I'd quickly push back on anyone who thinks someone like McGee, LMA or Deing would be the missing piece to a championship.

Highly doubt Jones would be interested in bringing in Whiteside.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Aldridge's relationship with the Spurs had really deteriorated. He wanted out for awhile. On the court, he just is a shell of his former self. His 3 ball is better, but just about every other facet of his game has gone down. He is more of a liability on the defensive end, lackluster on the boards, and his quickness/athleticism is all but gone.
He can still contribute, but it just isn't what the Spurs needed.
Dieng is younger and generally more active. He has going to rebounder better, defend the rim better, and finish better.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Both of those guys will just be role players. Yeah, Claxton has been nice now that he is back from injury, but I don't blame the Nets for adding some talent on the cheap.

Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
I don't think that anyone will argue any of those guys is the difference between winning it all or not winning it all, but I think Dieng easily makes the Suns a more complete team. McGee is more insurance than anything else, versus a team like Denver or Utah.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sun Mar 28, 2021 4:05 pmMaybe it'll be a complacent mistake, but I'd quickly push back on anyone who thinks someone like McGee, LMA or Deing would be the missing piece to a championship.

This is silly. Chriss is in the final year of his contract, fractured his right fibula, and is likely done for the year. None of these moves have anything to do with him as a player.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Why did they acquire him (Chriss) if he was injured and unable to play? Was it cap shenanigans?
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
Golden State paid them to.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Watching Westbrook more often than not I'm left shaking my head at his decision making and I know how people feel about his triple double accomplishments over the years but this is some stat line
I might even watch the 2nd half for lil context but Wow
Oh and this was against Pacers who we've seen play some decent D

It's so strange to me that Scott Skiles of all people still has the single-game NBA assist record.
Re: Around the League: Week 14 3/22-3/28
The Magic had 44 assists that game on 107 FGAs. The Nuggets had 14(!!!!) on 119 FGAs.Charlie Smithy! wrote: ↑Mon Mar 29, 2021 7:36 pmIt's so strange to me that Scott Skiles of all people still has the single-game NBA assist record.

That was a Paul Westhead Nuggets team. They were notorious for their tempo and disrespect for defensive effort.
