    These idiots keep letting their dongs rule their pee brains. None of them freaking learn. Idiots!!!! Morons!!!. One of these leagues needs to suspend someone for life before they all learn.

    Surprised that Wareen hasn’t signed yet, I wonder if his medicals are really bad.

    Monk and DJ (for some reason) are the only two who have been signed so far. Rob should be ashamed.

    pg list is solid. frank jackson was someone i mentioned as a reclamation project a couple weeks ago.

    schroder's a d****** but can still play a backup role, as can dragic and augustin.

    if you need a backup pg, you're in luck!

    and i agree, i'd be happy with either bryant or cousins as our second center.

    The list is telling though. Baze was garbage, Ellington couldn’t even do the thing we signed him for (3’s), and Ariza is toast. Melo will get signed because he’s turned into a helluva three point shooter in a bench role. Dwight is pretty toasty, done-zo adjacent. I still like Avery off the bench somewhere. Everyone hates him but I liked his effort and he shot better than everyone else on last year’s team from 3 other than Melo.

    bradley and melo should both get contracts somewhere, imo. neither is a big need for us, but if the dust settles and we can't find anyone else, i'd be glad to have either back in a more limited role.

    If our roster stands, I go with Augustin because we need shooting. If we get Kyrie and/or unload Nunn then that changes a bit. Definitely a lot of talent left in the pool. Can't bring myself back to the DS table. Hate him so much after everything. Hoping he goes to Phoenix or Philly for hatred consolation.


    Another position and player but I'm very curious to see what happens with Trezz.

    i'd take trez back, but i think he wouldn't be happy with the role we'd have for him.

    he'd be a better fit if we moved russ for kyrie. with russ still here, we need to be thinking about shooting a bit more (cousins/bryant).

    i wonder what aldridge is asking for. he wouldn't be a bad addition in limited minutes off the bench

    The unfortunate reality is most of these guys are 5 star recruits have been coddled their entire lives to where they believe they can do no wrong, and if they do something someone doesn't like (which to them still isn't something that's wrong and it's merely people out to get them) people will move heaven and earth to cover it up for them. Raise someone that way through middle school and high school, there is no way to realistically expect them to understand actions have consequences.

    Honestly, I do not want Trez back under pretty much any circumstance. He's shown that he's the problem at this point, not the teams he's played on. If we trade for Kyrie, that's a lot of crazy/mercurial to have on one roster.

    Melo will definitely get offers. Just a matter of if it's a place and role he likes. I'd love to have him back, but just not sure we can afford it with our remaining needs on the roster.

    Bradley might catch on as a 10th man somewhere before camp.

    The fact that 4-5 of those players on Buha's list are going to the retirement home isn't a good look.

    They destroyed Pete Rose's entire livelihood for betting and still do. You should have the same swift punishment if you beat the s*** out of a woman and are charged with felony assault.

    Yes, I know, some women may coherence you into something, but that's what I'm talking about. If you are dumb enough to even be in around it, then you deserve to get the harsh penalty.

    All these fake a** commercials and b******* PR garbage these commissioners put out, don't solve s***. Where the hell is this girl's dad? Or brother? Do we protect our girls/women, anywhere? Scum society can't even do the basic fundamentals. Rant over....

    Seems like no team in the NBA wants to make Schroeder their starting PG. Does the schadenfreude make me a bad person?

    Seriously though, I am still amazed the Lakers offered this moron USD 80M... and he rejected it. Guess I should be thankful.

    Probably true, but that must have been one of the more spectacular cases.
