I will never understand not going after Tyus. We could have offered him the starting spot and more money than the suns.

Our two primary playmakers are Franz and Paolo in the starting lineup and we want to develop ABs playmaking. Also, Tyus sucks on defense.

Tyus can score and run an offense though. Are we not watching the same game? I LOVE defense but you have to be able to score too.

Yep and having the 27th rank offense is not good enough if you want to eventually win a championship.

How is that still on the cylinder?? The replay clear it shows it coming out of the cylinder. Goga goes back for a put back and George knocks it away as it's on the rim... What?
