    Tbh..I believe we are looking to have 9
    Vogel or not, one young banger is a good thing to have IMO. I'd rather go for anyone younger than Dedmon, and someone a bit better than Dieng. I wouldn't make those two my first choices.

    How's the vet min sound?

    This is why I was 1000% against moving Russ for him. I think it was the worst kept secret in the league he was heading to buyoutville and that's been the case since Feb

    Gonna laugh if after all of this we end up with Wall.

    Malik is a good investment IMO. He makes moving Talen OK for me. I really like Austin and Stan too..I think we'd be more competitive than some think playing those 3, I'd really like to keep Nunn too. Talen just seems to be the odd man out because he has more trade value. It's kind of wild when you realize that he's only 21.

    Need to trade Russ for a few players to get some capable bodies here, if we can get Wall on the cheap that would be great too. Need to fill out the roster a bit with players who aren't just the vet min though.

    I'd take Wall on a vet min. It can't turn out any worse than signing Ariza.

    I think Wall signs elsewhere but I guess it’s a possibility since he’s part of Klutch.

    It depends on who they are, it's some poor performers on every team making more than the vet minimum too. We won a chip with a few guys that contributed on the vet min.

    I think he's a Clipp, but the Klutch factor and the fact that Bron and Klutch pushed it at the deadline makes me think we'll be in the mix.

    I think Wall only considers us if we’ve already shipped out Russ for pieces (not including a starting caliber PG) and have a starting position to offer him.

    If Russ is still on the roster come July 1st, I think Wall will quickly come to terms with the Clips.

    The Clippers are going to sign everybody and still come up short.

    Why? I know he doesn't expect to start anywhere. That guy can't be thinking that he's a starter. Definitely shouldn't expect to even play much across the hall.

    He’s been out of the league for what two years? He can’t expect to be starting anywhere.

    He still got over 40..that's a win for Rich Paul. Well Washington is looking for a PG..John Wall on a vet min isn't such a bad idea for them either.
