Re: Waive Watch: Gillespie and Perry waived
so it comes down to Dekker, Wainwright, and Bonga for two spots.

Freddy has not looked like what he provided last season, not sure what happened!

It will be Dekker and Wainright. Bonga will get an invite to the 905...since he is still only 21 years old.

After they let Dekker emptied the clip like it was Kobe's Utah. It will be surprising if he stays.

Yeah. To me it looked an agent special - showcase my client so he can get an opportunity somewhere else.

Writing was on the wall for Freddie G, even though last night he had his best stretch of minutes.

Interesting I've never thought of that before, cool tactic. I wonder what the trade off for that would be.ruckus wrote:ash_k wrote:LBJKB24MJ23 wrote:so it comes down to Dekker, Wainwright, and Bonga for two spots.

Keeping agents happy helps the team's front office reputation when it comes to getting future deals done, or whenever you need trust to negotiate in good faith for example.

Good luck Freddie and other guy!
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

I think its interesting to note both bigs were cut. I think there is a chance we are actually going to pick up another big off the waiver market (Kabengele?)

I would have no problem with that. He's Canadian and is of Congolese descent. 6'10 with 7'3 wingspan. Played at Florida State. That checks the boxes for Masai.

Those minutes also displayed some of the worst defence I've ever seen. I'm surprised he hasn't been cut also, but maybe this is also a way to appease the agent (he was the last cut)...
