Simpson was pretty terrible in his limited Summer League minutes this year….waiting to see what details come out on him and this supposed deal.

I actually really don’t like Simpson at all. He’s a horrible basketball player.

As it stands now, I am SERIOUSLY doubting Weaver as a good general manager. Past lottery drafting I feel his other moves have been lateral at best. His best trades have been Bogan and Monte Morris. Maybe Harris IF he ever plays for us.

I don’t think Harris sees the court otherwise Ausar or Burks is out. Not enough minutes. I like the depth, I don’t care much for it if you’re making a 20m contract as a third string player or a two way player like Burks be forced to sit on the bench as a third string. The roster is not balanced right at all.

You got Stewart who is a small ball center get paid like a fifth option when he’s not a 6th or 7th option.
You got Bagley who gets paid the same given the full MLE just like Stewart when he’s not a 6th but maybe 7th option since he’s better than Stewart let’s be real here.
You got Wiseman whom I HOPE never EVER sees the PF position. I mean this kid sucks. He’s inefficient like an ARE-tard inside the paint, can’t and WONT pass the ball, can’t shoot the ball, he’s got complete tunnel vision worse than Rodney Stuckey. I mean Wiseman is a bigger bust than Bagley is. He’s got NO awareness defensively he can’t block anything serious, he’s a child on the court it’s embarrassing. I hate saying all that cuz I was a big fan of the trade but the sour truth is he SUCKS. He’s a horrible all around basketball player. He’s not worth the second pick and he showed NOTHING in summer league. This kid sucks man, I like his game but it’s’ for children. You need to be making 70% FG inside the paint or anything close to it. Otherwise shoot or pass the ball and he won’t do either one. I’m out on Wiseman. I’d trade him quickly. This is a bigger bust than Nerlens Noel.

Oh let’s add another point guard when we have Cade Ivey Ausar Morris Sasser Killian and now…Simpson?

I’m one year away from jumping on the bandwagon of firing weaver.

This is a horrendous roster outside his lottery picks. This is bad.

Cade
Ivey
Ausar
Bojan
Duren

Stewart
Morris
Burks
Harris

IF that's the rotation - or very close to it - do you still feel the same?

And has there been more detail in relation to this Simpson contract?

No sasser killian Bagley Wiseman Livers I don’t mind that rotation at all if that’s what they want to play. Yes it does make me feel better. The problem I have is I’m betting Wiseman gets mins over Duren and that’s gonna tick me off. It’s crystal clear obvious Duren is better. I hope the US Select team invite makes it obvious for Monty Williams to start Duren because he’s the clear starting big man and it’s not close. I think that starting lineup can get swept on defense. I can imagine Stewart starts with Bogan at the 3 just for consistent professional offense and defense. Eventually I suspect Morris gets his extension, Ausar gets his starting position, Harris won’t play much in my opinion, one of him or Burks is off the team by the trade deadline. Bogan I would actually let him stay on the team even if he doesn’t start, I watched some of his highlights briefly and immediately realized he’s actually our second best player by a GOOD margin. He’s more than just a shooter, he’s a playmaker but takes the shots because he’s the best scorer on the team. Guy is special and I agree his value is a first round pick and 2 second round picks. I wouldn’t trade him for anything less than a mid first round pick. If you ask me we are still in asset collecting mode and that’s fine because I believe Weaver got a lot of assets now compared to 4 years ago. The problem is he hasn’t been able to flip them for talent and I hope he gets that opportunity this year. We know he flipped Plumlee for Olynyk and Olynyk for Bogan. I am sensing a Bogan Killian trade coming soon for some reason. It makes too much sense to trade those two now.
