Pritchard's statement as Lance left the building was incredibly petty. Of course, I would expect no less from him. I'm surprised Lance took the somewhat high road in his response.
So it appears we signed him with cap rather than our room exception....which is really weird cause we coulda offered an incoming free agent more money 5.1(cap) vs 4.4(room exception). So with Svi (1 - 1.5m) + Lance (4.5m) = our cap space is all but taken up now. McGee will sign for the vet min and we'll officially be at 14 with a possible 15th added via the room exception.
How much is the room exception, 4.4? If so, probably just didn't feel like no one out there is worth the hold up on all of this.
Exactly. They picked out their priorities and at this point there's really no one worth the Room I think. Maybe Ellington? But there's no minutes for him. At this point, hold on to the cash.
More evidence we were are going to be run n gun this year with a big helping of defensive intensity/attitude. This is going to be fun. We have a bunch of top notch guard/wing rebounders, wing players that can play multiple positions and most of all have a s*** ton of NBA talent from 1-10 on the roster.
Between Lance and Moe off the bench, you're gonna have guys flying all over the court for balls. Expect a lot of physicality from these two guys. Rondo and Kuz will be perfectly adequate in orchestrating the offense off the bench.
That ^. We will be #1 target for players bought out/waived during the season. Not just because we will be one of THE teams to be on basketball-wise but because we actually have a chunk of paper to offer. There is usually someone good to be got and we are in prime position for it, very good planning on Rob and Mag's part.
