    According to Real GM, he's repped byJeff Fried, Happy David Walters, Steve McCaskill. The only real, employed NBA'er in their roladex is RJ Hampton.

    Maybe Rob:

    a) knows this agent, and is just doing him a solid, even if it's a token one, and/or
    b) is greasing some palms for zero cost now to develop relationships, and to possibly cash in on sometime in the future.

    Or in other words, playing long-term chess. Just me speculating.

    My only counter to the we're doing his agent a favor line of thinking... what about Faried and Collison? Are we doing favors for every agent of players out of the league? That seems unlikely to me.

    All "fodder" for one another to play each other ;) in one mass tryout to not waste our time :giggle: and be convinced to go away after being given a classy fair look? Hopefully.

    First McLemore and now Cook. They're collecting our fringe players. Sure fire way to keep Dame happy.



    Boogie hinting at another stint in Sac Town?

    Which is the worse injury / situation / lost money situation .... Boogie or IT. Boogie I'm sure but man both of these guys had their financial futures in the league just wrecked.

    This guy on the other hand ..... "Me, Me, 'I want', Me" .... self inflicted

    So whats the difference from before? He had a prominent role with the Cs and was the same defensive liability so I see little difference. If he is in fact as healthy as he was before the injury he could be a steal for any team needing an offensive spark plug on a minimum deal.

    I hope he gets another chance and balls out earning himself that Brinks Truck Dinero! Gotta love the guy that bust his azz, always smiling and says and does the right things. This is a truly good dude and I sincerely hope he gets another shot to prove himself.

    You can also spin it and say Morey and Rivers are toxic and created a toxic environment...

    bingo.

    when are folks going to put this together?

    rivers and morey leave trails of broken relationships/promises that are always everyone else's fault.

    Maybe we're just collecting data points for a mid season addition in case something goes wrong

    Okay, new theory… we’re leaning into the retirement home memes and trying to enable some of our critics so our guys get more locker room material to fuel them?

    I don’t know lol, I just really hope we don’t use our last roster spot on a washed up reclamation project

    All the new guys need to understand a fundamental fact about this team. All the media focuses on is Lebron, well that's because he is Lebron. Yet AD is the franchise player, guys better take note that fitting in with HIM, is more important to their future on this team than Lebron. I've said this a thousand times, Lebron James can play with ANYBODY, you better find out your best fit with Anthony Davis if you want to stick around.
