    And ..... if they weren't going to play him, as I guessed they did right by him to cut him loose to where he can still be picked up by another team and eligible for the playoffs.

    The Clippers should sign him, of course.

    if both sides are happy, then i am. i really think what rob's trying to do is re-build the brand. if troy feels like he was treated fairly, that matters.

    I’m not sure I like this move, unless we have a better player lined up, or can fill a need. I think we may regret it in times we need a shooter, especially if this is for Waiters. Very classy of Daniels to post what he did though, he helped us look good coming out of this, like we helped him go somewhere he can get playing time. I don’t have a hard time believing what he said about loving his time here though, this team seems genuinely close, no real drama to speak of.

    Daniels wasn't getting any minutes and he wouldn't even be our backup player because that would be Cook. At least with Dudley, if Kuzma is out, we can give Dudley some burn because of his size. It's not like Daniels would have suddenly gotten minutes in the playoffs. Huge no on Waiters, though. This dude has been on legitimate elite teams but always gets traded. He's just not a good fit on a contender. He wants to be like Devin Booker.

    Good for Troy. Nice mile high city and he's in the playoffs. Hope he does great and gets a decent FA contract. Except against us of course.

    Congrats to Daniels. Wish him the best, he was at the least, a classy guy.
