    Looks like we'll be getting word on Koloko soon.

    Quincy has potential. I think dropping Castleton instead of Treore to sign him was definitely the right call.

    They must have selective reading or their ignore list is very full. Otherwise our front court depth would've been addressed this summer.

    Rob isn't on LB, but I think he has people who are. I'm glad they responded with a sense of urgency and completed this transaction probably within an hour of me calling for it.

    never understood the castleton hype. he's an unathletic undersized C and hasn't shown any signs of improving his game since last year. waiving him was the right move

    Clearly the Lakers office is well versed in the quota rules, so Castleton had to go. Culinarily Italian Stallion just happens to be the beneficiary of circumstance.

    min all seriousness, he looks like he’s earned a chance. Just wish we were as good at finding bigs as we are small guys. But maybe the plan is to flip one of our guard assets for a big at some point.

    Are you not entertained with “Kokomo” in the meantime who looks to be a big upgrade on rim protecting and overall D and 10 pounds heavier than Hayes at least? He does have one season pro experience and posted highlights clip with the Raptors.

    Just f***ing insane contracts for a better than average players.
    For example
    Jalen Suggs has played 3 seasons for the Magic. He has averaged 11.5 points, 3.2 assists and 3.2 rebounds in 176 regular-season games.

    Trey Murphy III has played 3 seasons for the Pelicans. He has averaged 11.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 198 regular-season games.
    I completely understand Shaq
