    Too much leash. JJ needs to pull it sooner. We also need to do JJ a favor by shopping Vincent's a** this trade deadline & save JJ from himself.

    Damn Gabe is out again from too much cardio. What a waste of money this guy has been so far.

    I'd love to move Gabe at the deadline or before. He truly underachieved here. Never very good and always injured. Bad combo.

    He's back and all I could think of was can we trade him already so JJ can stop playing him

    though neither has been great, in comparable (small) sample sizes nick smith has been substantially better than gabe this year, intangibles be damned.

    he's not making an impact on either end. it's not like he can guard the quick perimeter players, so he's not filling a need for us.

    we need to get him away from jj. i feel like this is likely. if nothing else at the deadline, we might just shuffle deck chairs (move expirings for other expirings).

    Thybulle, Kennard, JC.

    All make right around there. Preference would be Thybulle cause we need defense. Kennard might be on the outside looking in since they just got Crispy and that also means we never see DK play another minute... double win. JC could give the bench a boost and help if we want some secondary ball handling off the bench.

    That's far from my preferenced deadline, but if we're just swapping his expiring for another. Those are good options.

    who's jc? jevon carter?

    thybulle would be my guy. portland would want to extract more.

    gabe/knecht for thybulle/wesley works and makes portland look like they got one over on us. gives us wiggle room for that last roster spot, too.

    It really has turned into a Hambone/Prince love affair at this point. I would be a bit frustrated if I were Nick Smith. Stay professional and ready, kid!

    Maybe that’s why Nick conspicuously left Gabe’s high five hanging exactly the same way in the same situation in the same spot on the court in 2 consecutive games against the Grizz last week?
