is that green font? or are you generally upset that we waived higgins?

we had an open roster spot. we didnt need to waive higgins to sign adrien. strange move.

funny thing is, last night, i was thinking to myself that higgins actually looked half decent. go figure.

Unless there is another potential move in the works where that roster spot would be utilized.

Scoop Jardine? I wonder where he's at in his injury rehab. I've been suspecting that the open 15th man spot was reserved for him. I can see Cory Higgins getting picked back up before season's end. Rod Higgins must've pissed Jordan off in a golf match or gambling bet, or something

- Diop got the start and has played more minutes of late.
- Pick up another "big" man.
- Drop Higgins to clear up a roster spot.


Makes me think a move is in the works

MJ's daugthers bf > higgin's son. owner trumps pres of bball ops 10 times out of 10.

this definitely makes some sense. two for one trade for diop.

YESYESYESYESYESYESYES

Well, we were stacked at guard (by our standards) and really weak in the frontcourt. For Higgins it was probably either leaving him on the bench until the end of the season, or making us one of the fewer teams in the league with that many open roster spots. Even if there isn't a move planned right now, we're putting ourselves in position to make one.

Is Adrien on a 10 day?

i dont think 10 day contracts are allowed yet. they usually start in january or later. this would have to be deal for rest of year. someone correct me if i am wrong.

wow. i'm legitimately surprised that this happened. it seemed like everything was in motion for higgins to be a hanger-on for a 2nd season. it is encouraging to see the bobcats maybe start to make moves to address roster inefficiencies. a new day!

Diop for Gooden and Doron Lamb?

I'm not really familiar with 10 day contracts. In either case it's cool.

Too many SGs, but we just cut the only other guy somewhat capable of running point. Now if Kemba or Sessions gets hurt we don't have a backup
