    seems like their logic is we need more offense which I dont agree with, we need a guy to do the dirty work, we saw what Melo looks like as PF, Randle took his lunch money and then some when he was in OKC

    Tough injury for Boogie. Hate seeing his career going down like this.

    Joakim Noah, cut Troy Daniels if Iggy gets bought out. Keep DC so we can re up him next year

    Let's look on the bright side, DMC was a lottery ticket. Chances of him being diminished, hurt again and/or disappointing were always very high. His career is also likely over, unfortunately for him.

    No, he'll play again absolutely. But the days of getting close to max money are forever gone. I think the days of getting max money even before this ACL tear were gone but he would get paid after a nice year with us. To not even get to see him in a jersey or get an idea of how this would look is what is most discouraging for me. The 'What If'...

    If he gets injured like that on a layup at 3/4 speed, there's no way he was gonna make it through the Season.
    This really blows, but best to find out now.. & to those saying there's no way AD resigns in 2020 now. What exactly are you basing that on..?
    Cousins was most likely not coming back after this Season anyways.

    Unfortunately his desire to play just got the better of him IMO. he needed to really take his time and let the leg heal.

    Single biggest piece of sh!t news of the season so far. Achillies, quad and ACL all in 1 1/2 years. Well he'll be an easy resign next summer cause nobody's touching that guy now

    I'm at a loss...we literally cannot catch a break.

    On the bright side...this probably means our best lineup will get a lot more run now (AD Kuz Green KCP LeBron)...and McGee is going to get some real PT...along with Dudley. Suddenly, we're very thin up front for the whole year...may need to get another center. Dwight?
