Yay? So we get to watch that again. I get injuries, but I don’t get the fascination with him

Yuck. It's not like he even knows "they system" since it's a whole new coaching staff.

Sigh. We truly have reached a low point.

How long before he’s injured too?

I don't know what's worse. We signed Kevin Knox, or we hung onto an open roster spot for months and months just so we can sign Kevin Knox.

Got to do something. Whole team has a damn curse on it.

Also, one year deal? That sounds like trade bait to me.

The worst part is, we can use him. We're so poorly constructed, that we could use any Forward with size and athleticism that can do anything for us.

He had a few good games for us last time, but he is terrible.

If it’s the league minimum who cares. He’ll ride the bench once we get people back.

If we get people back.

If he hitting open shots (didn’t last year much) why not. Don’t think we’re supposed to see him on court tho

I don’t sweat the end of the bench kind of moves. Minimal salary, minimal length. Sort of a nothing burger.

At a minimum, his acquisition hopefully means we will no longer see Joe Harris on the court.

Call me crazy but I think we get a late, future SRP for Harris at the deadline

No we don't. Unless we eat a 20 mil/year longer contract for an useless player, just like Joe Harris.

Joe Harris hasn't been a NBA player for years.

We’re officially tanking if Knox gets minutes. He’ll give Wiseman a run for lowest BBIQ in the league.

Knox is dumb, but Bagley and Wiseman are in a whole new level.

Knox is better than Joe Harris, and we don't even have Joe Harris. I also rather have Knox playing 15ish minutes per game than watching Cade play 40 mpg in a back to back game and a lot of those minutes as SF.

Knox can run, jump, is long, and eventually he can hit some 3's, better than half of our starting lineup. Eventually we'll see some dumb TOs, like stuff we get from our starter Forward, Isaiah Stewart.

I get that Diallo is the poor man's version of Ausar, but I'd rather have him than Kevin Knox. Diallo will leave it out on the floor.
