I have happy memories of Kemba.

I don't want to ruin that by bringing him back to be an end-of-the bench has been who has to sit in this currently **** up locker room.

Bring him back for a day to retire

reggie miller just said that curry's greatest achievement was graduating from college. lol. why do some of these guys get hired? i graduated college and i was a **** lazy moron at that age. its not that amazing of an accomplishment. millions do it every year. i think mvp, 4 rings, finals mvp, being a father, creating a cheesy golf show called holey moley... all more impressive than graduating from a college.

In rather shocking news (to me anyway) the Rockets are going to start Bruno Fernando over Sengun at center. Yikes

interesting
certainly not a huge vote of confidence
possible sengun will always be more of a 6th man type big due to his size, lack of rim protection. or maybe protecting him from foul trouble
i assume he'll still play 25mpg
sabonis started his career in similar fashion

I could maybe understand if it wasn't for Bruno Fernando. Unless he's had some kind of crazy transformation he's really bad.

Bruno had 7-9-7 tonight, impressive.

Watched the DET - ORL game after ours and Duren is definitely physically ready to play in a way that Mark is not.

At one point ORL had a lineup on the floor of Suggs - Wagner - Bol - Bamba - WCJ and they played a zone the whole time, looked weird as hell but seemed to kinda work.

who the **** picked Utah to beat Denver?!

Ainge is going to have to trade away more veterans to tank properly

while Sengun turned it over 6 times, maybe its the passing that won Bruno the start.
Sengun is still only 20 as well

Where do Bouk and Kai go in a redraft. 0% chance either goes in the 1st, but is it possible they go undrafted?

What are the odds Kai has a better career than Biyombo?

I think Mitch has a better overall draft record than Cho here, but Mitch's draft in 2021 is probably worse than any single draft of Cho's and its looking like the 2022 draft is going to make it a pretty brutal two year run (especially if Duren is a lot better than Williams).

Kai isn't even on Vonleh's career track. Who, by the way, played 20 minutes for Boston. He's managed to carve himself a role as a defensive/rebounding PF off the bench.

i'm not ready to write off Kai yet.

Me neither. That being said him, Mark, and Kai need as much Swarm this season as possible, and all 3 need another year working on their bodies as well.

I was wrong so far on Duren, he looks good.

Eason, boy could we use him. He's going to be so good. Problem is Houston has too many young guys and not enough minutes. But I doubt they would trade any of them.

Luckily, everyone in our front office is related. Makes inter-office romance less likely.
