Did not really like it either, but Trent Jr has become a decent defender.
Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

Is there a reason why Chris Livingston is not on a two way? I recall there used to be something where a second rounder was cheaper than a normal minimum contract but figured its better to have the flexibility

It would appear we offered him a spot on the roster if he shut down his workouts. Also sounds like his agent actively told teams not to draft him because of the promise he had.

Do they still have OCB's? The last time I went, I saw this chubby little girl eat her weight in food and when she left, she hurled all over the sidewalk by our window. Good times.

Livingston absolutely should've been given the Mamu treatment: a 2-year 2-way spot with the Herd. If after those two years he shows he can actually be something, then he can get a big boy contract. Alas.

I assume he's could practice if we had a normal training staff, if this is surgery related, and they are being ultra conservative. His knee was scoped at least 4 months ago.

If Khris can't get back to his previous form and stage this season, I see no reason to keep him around. TBH, I don't have much confidence in him this year but I also like surprises.

Damn Khris is still on a restriction? I would’ve thought that was behind him by now. That’s a tiny bit worrying unless it’s a specified reason.

Yes, maybe, no...I like the idea of trying to game some talent out of the draft. It was a very MLB baseball type move, to have an agent want a guarantee and for a team to commit to it. I think that is something we should try every year on the bottom of the roster.

Even now that we retooled a bit, we are still and old team. I used to think of that Spurs team being old dinosaurs, but our guys are kind of lining up in age in a similar way to the pre-Kawhi teams. I am not saying I would hold Livingston at all cost or anything, but I'm not just looking to replace him with anyone either.

In retrospect, that might have been the same thing we did with the Georgios K guy. Make him the promise and if it doesn't work, cut him and take your lumps. But that doesn't mean I don't think it is a smart thing to keep trying.

1. I don't think they have had one out by me for like 20 years
2. Someone was always puking at OCBs, just like there were always 350 lb people on oxygen at all times of the day

My personal favorite was after we ate I got to get a hot cinnamon roll to finish off the meal or a bowl of ice cream. Those were the days.

Minimum for awards is 65 games (20 minutes per). I expect Giannis, Dame and Khris will settle in at 65-70.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
