Knight is not playing as well as he should in summer league Got doninated by Paul Reed and now Moses Wright? I think Rosas needs to keep looking, some better bigs may get waived by teams.

So we're not trying to win this game at all. Why not? Do they think McDaniels and Nowell can't handle one more game?

IMO they were a given before summer league started, but looked even better than expected. It was just one more game. Why not finish on a good note.

IMO I think it has a lot to do with their value on our roster vs potential trade material … If we continue to pursue Simmons we need to be weighing the give-and-take’s of these young players and their progress. Especially if we are trying to get a third team involved
