everyone still out by the looks of it. Dont expect the new kids to be lacing them up today but who knows maybe.
the next two games will probably be postponed with the Wizards Covid nightmares so maybe by the 20th Frohio can go off on the team that traded him from a contender to a front court log jam.

Hoping to see the new guys, news said that they may suit up. If so, and if Dre is actually injured it would seem to be an opportunity to get Jarret out there. I think with Prince here and KPJ's status a mystery it looks like Okoro will get a lot of time at the 2, which is fine to me as the 2/3 positions are interchangeable for a player his size.
There is sure to be more roster turnover but as a first move I really like getting Jarret, hopefully Dre or McGee is moved sooner rather than later to ease the logjam at the 5.

I could see some kind of Mcgee to Portland trade asap given Nurkic broke his hand...
But who do they have that they are willing to part with in the trade idk. Maybe Little who hasnt done much and cant break their rotation yet. He has upside and can defend if coached up the freakish athleticism is there he just cant score beyond dunks or lay ups.

I just wanna know why Jarrett Allen wears 4 year old Kyrie sneakers.

I see KPJ is with the team(via a facebook photo). That's a good sign, right?

something tells me Altman hoped that kind of reaction would occur...
Thats the thing about Dre though he can really dominate when motivated and even after this trade for Allen you kinda gotta wonder if they should try to keep both.

I don't think it will be possible. Allen is going to get offers.

yeah I guess the competition will be a good thing for a bit if Dre isnt moved before the next game on Wednesday lol. Cant think of a better time to move him than right t f now as far as on court impact fresh in any gms mind.

Yeah, I saw him on the bench cheering late in the game, good to see him with the team. Hopefully things are going well for him.

House arrest could have easily been the case the timing adds up imo same goes for rehab stint etc.
whatever the case may be I hope it wasnt rehab because that means any relapse will cause issue with the org.
Slap on the wrist house arrest and back to work it is. Things are different for anyone working for the entertainment industry as far as work during the arrest. It's not like he could have travelled with the team if he had to be home every day etc so it would be smarter for the org to just tell him stay home until it was cleaned up.
He is not back imo but being there on the bench is a good sign it wont be much longer

Unfortunately, some rumors are leaking that suggest this may already be going badly and they were likely leaked to reset expectations in the fan base.

We should see soon enough.
