    That's good news for us though, if we can clear a roster spot, or if we need him due to injuries (hopefully not).

    We’re essentially developing players for the Grizzlies at this point

    I guess playing with Lebron and AD, makes some guys look better than they really are?

    It wasn't the roster, it was the coaching!
    (Allegedly) lol..but seriously, we have what we have. We are going to take a thumping or two along the way, but I expect Rob to make a roster move, sometime around the middle of December.

    You expect him to wait that long? Ya, I don't think they have that kind of time. Max Christie is abysmal. Gabe Vincent is a hair better and Dalton is gonna need more NBA time to be something productive every game.

    He said that he needed 20-25 games or so, in order to evaluate what we have. I'll take him at his word. I think we both determined that a move was needed during the offseason, but it is what it is. We should bounce back in the next two games though.

    The contracts with Gabe are pretty similar
    He wanted a shot at being a starter which the Lakers weren't going to do with Dlo around.

    It's too bad as the combo is actually good

    Trade DLO and Vincent before they get hurt and trade Max before even the dumbest GM's realise he sucks.

    Bane an oblique strain and Marcus Smart (ankle) have both been ruled out for the remainder of the contest in what has been a parade of injuries for Memphis over the past 12 months.

    lol absolutely not. we agree on many things, but your schroder love is not one of them. every single of his teams is ready to move on from him. he left us for more money and because he still (erroneously) believes he's an nba starter. this is only true if you plan on finishing in the bottom 10.

    Cole Anthony has lost space in Orlando. He was balling out a couple years ago and is still young.
    Someone to look at if we trade DLo and are one PG short.
    He's more of an offensive player, but can be a spark off the bench and score some for you

    lol, i was looking at that exactly the other day. i wonder if a gabe/anthony swap makes sense. another veteran with some experience for orlando, some quickness in the back court for us.

    we'd need anthony to agitate a bit.
