To be honest, he wasn't playing that poorly.

That's hilarious, but it's pretty hard to play with Doncic and Kyrie.. you barely touch the ball first and 2nd, when I was checking stats from his games, it really wasn't that bad. PJ is taller, but pretty similar to Grant.. Without checking stats, I would guess PJ has shot the ball a tad more throughout his career. Still upgrade over Grant due to size, but not that crazy of a difference, imo.

Grant Williams is an acquired taste. Much like foie gras or Vegemite or balut.

We gonna get in a last minute trade again? Everybody is making these moves to keep up with us so not sure if there’s really anything we can do outside of that deal for Tillman without shaking up what we’ve already got pretty significantly.

I'm surprised that no sites have crashed, as of yet.

Charlotte has actually been somewhat...competent?

Turned Rozier into a 2027 Miami first. Turned PJ Washington into a 2027 Dallas first and Grant who could be rehabbed.

Those are two distant first with some upside. Not bad work.
