We needed him on our team, roster rounding out

Goga + Jett works financially but we’re going to need Goga with Mo out.

Only if we drafted a C in the second round...

Got to keep goga and Jett, maybe a trade deadline deal. For example, Mil sucks, Giannis finally officially asks out and they tear it down and are willing to trade Bobby.

Good. Now we can ditch the AB experiment.

We have a real point guard on the roster now!

Nobody should be more thankful for us to finally have a backup PG than Anthony Black. So much this summer has been about putting the right guys around our core pieces. AB is a wing, and that's okay. Let him cut off the ball, defend, and occasionally spot up. Love it.

Tre is a career 31% 3pt shooter. He was HOT in 18 games in Chicago last year (50% from 3 on low volume) but was at 31% in SA last season too… so what numbers do you trust? His 18 game stint in Chicago or his career average which he match last year at SA too?

Tyus is much better...perennially elite efficiency. Always among the league leaders in Ast/Tov ratio...always.

Shoots 3's like Gary Harris, low volume but high percentage...that's just who he is. Best backup PG in the league - can't blame him for chasing a starting slot, but it didn't scale. Just a smart smart player who is only compromised by his stature. His little brother is a bit bigger, maybe people assume he's the same but bigger, but he's not.

Slam dunk fit. Great signing. Shoots > 40% from 3. Can run an offense and not turn the ball over. Should be able to start in spot games in case of injuries. Could see him finishing games in some lineups.

we may have gotten a situational one ala Draymond.

Go get Claxton or Gafford, Weltman.

Good to see us get Jones. We needed that guard depth bad. Now just get business with Mo Wagner done and get him resigned and Weltman will have had a great summer.
