how is the roster at 15, if Nash is out for the season?

They're retaining Ellington? Hope he shoots a bit better......

Can't cut him when he is injured, you'd have to pay full salary if you do.

Were dropping a lot of players, I wonder if Mitch is going to try and acquire someone at Pg or wing.

So you're saying they'll cut him when he's fully recovered?

If both Young and Henry recover, he's a goner.

Cool, cool. That's how it should be. It's pretty brutal what we've seen so far.

Idk about waiving Roscoe Smith. Especially with the injury issues were having right now. Should he is a pretty good offensive rebounder and also doesn't shy away from the contract. Especially with the Xavier Henry situation, I believe we could have used his size on our roster

Yeah i've given up on seeing Henry ever being healthy or for a good period of time anyways. He's had way too many knee issues.

OK, now I understand, Ellington played under Scott in Cleveland for half a year. He played pretty well. So he's giving him another chance. OK, cool.

**** this Shawne Williams experiment and circle jerk part 2 with Scott and Ellington. That concussion kept him on a team he honestly didn't earn his way on to.
