    OK, running out of time so time to post the 5th and final FA position listing:

    POINT GUARDS

    With Bron, Russ (please no!), Nunn, THT, and AR handling the ball there is no reason to spend much time or money here. We have mini Pip we're developing, too. If we trade Russ, it seems we're likely taking on a guard in that scenario too.

    If our thin roster wasn't so guard heavy and we didn't have a crater sized hole at the wing, then I'd love to bring back the other one who got away -- GP2.

    Realistically, I would bring back Augustin, bring another AR in...Austin Rivers, or look at Jevon Carter who Ham has coached in MIL. Each will be up for grabs for the min. DJ is a good shooter, high IQ and was a nice fit offensively next to Bron in short bursts as a table setter. If we are looking to improve our defense throughout the roster, Rivers is a good cheap pickup. But D + familiarity points to Carter.

    Yeah I'm down on our front office, but not sure I'm buying that Blake Griffin interest at all.

    Blake Griffin is like Brick, no use for him anymore after losing their athleticism. Some players depend to much on their athleticism and bites them in the a** when they get older.

    I'm all for a Melo re-sign, felt like he was one of the few who hit exactly what was expected of him last year.

    If we keep Russ and sign Blake Griffin my fandom will be pushed to the limits. To have to put up with DeAndre and Blake in back to back years, please god no.

    If Fabian White has a good SL and we don't do well in FA, he's getting a roster spot.

    Melo can kick rocks.

    I see nothing to inspire me to watch games this next season yet.

    Just like last season.

    Literally the only full game I watched last year was in the playoffs, and it wasn't us. I just wanted to see the C Bags lose.

    Yup, looks like another s*** show season ahead, i'll be out weeks before Xmas.
    As long as Jeanie is the owner and we roll with Rob and Rambii, i don't see me staying up late, wasting health and time.

    You had me until Rambii.

    I’m still not sure how the pillars of our front office not in charge of the questionable decisions that have been made get pinned with their results.

    Clark and Lois need to be left alone. They are holding this show together behind the scenes. I see starring rules for them in the next LA Laker related drama produced

    lol, he kinda just names big city teams without much financial flexibility.

    his three point shooting fell off a cliff last year, and without that, he's not very playable. though his defense has been "not terrible" in bkn.

    would be very low on my list.

    Fischer's latest...

    $17m a year for Nurk
    POR might run it back with Ingles
    Knick things: shopping Fournier and Cam. Could try to get in the Murray sweepstakes using their mountain of draft picks. Robison likely sticking for 4/$60m
    Bagley getting the bag...$10m
    Who's going big game hunting for Ayton and Bridges?
    We need Bridges to get a sheet from someone to pressure them to come off some salaries.


    Tyus Jones wants more then the full MLE
    Latest on the Murray trade and where Collins ends up. SA's price is 4 1sts
    Price for a Warrior: Looney @ $10m. GP2 full MLE could get him to leave. Porter to get tax payers MLE. better be from us. No ifs ands or buts
    Wiz, DEN, and DET like Dipo
    Thadd staying in TOR for $10m a year
    Cs wing hunting
    They have no one to handle the ball. Shouldn't they be going after PGs?

    6ers still looking to shed
    Hartenstein for the FULL MLE?

    Batum likely getting $10m a year to stay with Clipps
    Bamba market
    $10m a year for Bobby Portis
    Nice Claxton full mid level
    OKC: picks for dumps
    Lonnie Walker leaving SA

    whoa...claxton full MLE? hartenstein near full MLE? just sign monk.

    any way we can facilitate murray to ny using russ? they could absorb his salary above murray's. we can take some stuff from ny (fournier, reddish, randle). ny gives 4 1sts, we give 1.

    we get a bench scorer in fournier, a guy we can start next to AD in randle, and a big wing and only give up one 1st?

    Yeah, shrugs.

    Nothing we can do.

    Kind of expected this.
