Hendo being gone is my favorite event of the offseason so far.

That's #2 on my favorite list because even if he was here Lamb would take his spot by the 2nd half of the season. Hell CDR was a better fit.


Think Kemba will help Lamb find his mojo?

No Lamb tweet from Kemba like Lance last year. I'm sure they're talking and making arrangements.

Kemba not a big Tweeter.

Lamb never was that bad on OKC. Just didn't get the consistent minutes. I think he'll show that he belong in a rotation here at the least. I honestly think he'll take the starting SG spot once it's evident we play better with him there than Batum. Gonna take Cliff and them until all star break to realize that or a 10 game losing streak.

I know you have MKG roots but I can see Lamb + Batum sharing the the floor and that will be our top wing combo. I don't think they will deal MKG though.

That could be a really good 3-man lineup without MKG. I have nothing against what is right. I'm not bias. I just have strong opinions. Some of our posters are bias and dicksiders. lol

Kemba + Lamb + Batum could be excellent. They need some time to gel though.

I'd rather see a Kemba + Lamb + MKG + Batum + Al/Hawes/Biz/Zeller lineup to complete the cycle.

Batum has had his best moments as a stretch 4 similar to Harrison Barnes, Jeff Green, and a bunch of other versatile SFs that struggle to be SGs.

That's what I was thinking. We could see some small ball lineup featuring Kemba, Lamb, Batum, MKG, and AL.

I was ok getting him until the team passed on Winslow. It makes all the trades look that much worse.

This is exactly what I've been trying to stress, that Batum is moreso a hybrid forward than a wing player and the proof is in the pudding. Only Cho would make a decent trade to finally get quality depth at small forward behind MKG that the team hasn't had over the past 3 seasons since drafting him (besides the brief stint of calling up CDR from the D-League) only to try to put the square peg in a round hole

Is somebody gonna call Bonnell out for saying that we had no interest in Lamb, just Jack after the 3-way trade fell thru because of Billy King. Lol

Bonnell really with a bad look on his takes about Lamb. As though we needed evidence that he doesn't know what our FO is thinking...
