Yeah, I wish we had kept Seth Curry, too.

A lesser brother worth having!

He shot 48% from the field and 43% from 3 with the Mavs last year putting up 13ppg. Better than Knight and he's making only $3M next year. Sigh.

The list of players I'd rather have than Knight is too long to list. But Seth Curry is definitely on it. Double sigh.

Devon will probably seem more playing time than Knight if he is still with us this season. They have to just cut their losses and trade him or buy him out. For his and the teams own good.

If all else fails, cut Knight. Swallow it and move on. Enough with the ugly and the dumb.

Too much money for Sarver to swallow, and too high profiled for McDonough to accept it as a failure this big (cut-worthy). They either try to pull another face-saving trade, or start another narrative about how we are going to see the real Knight next year, specially if we trade Bledsoe.

Yes I hear Watson n McD in my head with that also tsk

Thoughts? Has anybody read much of his writing? I figured Haller would be going back to covering ASU. He did a decent job in the interum.

Don't know much about him. I thought Haller was, as you said, decent. He didn't tweet much. Certainly wasn't as prolific in publishing articles as Coro was. Plus Coro would always answer my questions and come say hi if I went to the game when Suns were here. Still a little bummed I guess. I'm not sure Haller or Matt Petersen has ever responded to me on Twitter.

David Pick‏ @IAmDPick 2h ago

Source: Darion Atkins, center for Dan Shamir and Israel's No. 1 seed, agreed to play with Phoenix Suns at the NBA Summer League.

Just did a quick lookup. He played at Virginia and went undrafted couple years ago, just a defensive minded F/C it seems. ACC Def Player of the Year in 2015 and then in the 2015-16 season in G League he was ranked 10th in BPG

Some notes from Bordow I forgot to post yesterday.

I know Josh n Marquese will get theirs but really hope that Bender gets his this season

I like the sounds of those tweets. I was hoping that would be the case.

Please:

Bled 32 Ulis 16
Booker 34 Barbosa 14
Jackson 24 Warren 14 Jones 10
Chriss 12 Bender 24 Warren 12
Chandler 20 Williams 16 Chriss 12

I know it's genuinely tough to get 11 dudes in the lineup each night. But we've got 8 to develop and 4 vets who can help, so...

Fixed it a bit. Not everyone is going to get minutes. I'd rather focus on our core. Jones is a mirage because of his athleticism

Does Chriss look a little more jacked than last season?

Latest from Odds Shark has us paying 500:1 to win the championship, which puts us ahead of Brooklyn (750:1), tied with Sacramento, and behind everybody else.

Sigh, I guess I just have to accept that this isn't our year to win the championship.

Yep, definitely looks like his shoulders are filling in. Our running joke may be coming to an end.
