After watching Masai answer the question in the presser about the buyout market, he says he has personally spoken to 3-4 agents, but they must follow the rules as some players have not been released, or bought-out yet.

Sounds like Masai already has a few deals in place. I don't think they reduce the roster to 10 without having some names in mind.

Most definitely Stauskas agent has talked to Masai.

Hoping we grab Wayne and a big

I would be focused on Kieff and Ellington. Ellington obviously addresses our shooting woes, and Kieff would give the bench some scoring pop. The current market seems thin on a playmaking guard, but I assume we look for some insurance there as well - maybe Teodosic.

Hopefully none of those
On Gerald Henderson vs Derozan:
"Yes. Hendo is quite a bit better than DeMar.
So yes, I do believe he's currently the better player and do project that will continue to be in the future. I would also take Turner over DD."

I really don't want to root for a Morris twin. I'll never forgive OG if his **** play pushes Masai to go get one.

Elllington, Ellington, Ellington. He's an elite shooter. Better than Mirotic.
