    What does it mean when you are not impressed by a player’s highlights? *Sad sigh face*

    If we wanted a guy that could just score and do nothing else we should have signed Melo. I was against it, but he would have been better than Waiters, at least he’s tall and friends with LeBron.

    Melo sure would be nice to take the attention away from LeBron right now but I don't see how you can play Kuz+Melo at the same time...

    I don't want Waiters. We're good.

    don't see how waiters (or jr smith) is worth disrupting chemistry for. i guess if they've decided daniels is unsalvageable...but i'm not sure i agree.

    lebron's our creator. there aren't any high quality shot creators available. we have to just roll with it. if it's waiters or jr smith over daniels, give me lance, tbh.

    Not a fan of Waiters. Or JR. Rather give those minutes to AC.

    yeah, it's tough to decide who would sit in favor of the prospective addition. bradley, kcp, and caruso have all played well--particularly lately. green is green. rondo is an important locker room figure. how many minutes are left?

    You're right. All three of Bradley, KCP and AC are playing well and deserve more minutes. I still also want to see if we can get Cook going before the Playoff run starts.

    we do need more 3pt shooting tho, AC 3pt shot is not good enough for playoffs, kcp is very streaky n bradley just started hitting again, never hurts to have insurance, i dont like either opt but if i had to choose, id take Smith hes been in those moments before and has come up huge

    Would have rather had Melo.

    Would currently rather have Lance or Crawford.

    Dion can help, but he's a malcontent.

    So, no thanks.

    I’d honestly favor Crawford too.

    That actually shows you how good Pop's system was. Simmons was just a below average player and he seemingly looked much better than he was for the Spurs. I remember they thought he was developing into someone who could defend LeBron and slow him down. Man, he's fallen off the map right now.

    I would LOVE Dinwiddie on this squad. Wonder if they’ll take Kuz on a sign and trade.

    Frankly, I wouldn’t want to be in China right now, regardless of contract issues.
