I hope we buy another but I think Phil's done, time is running out and we have two rooks guaranteed plus Thannasis likely coming up...Maybe another draft and stash piece for cash, that couldn't hurt.


we did like quinn cook i think.

maybe buy the pick from cleveland?

or maybe we are saving the $$$ to move calderon at some point? ease to hit on a new team.

marc gasol was also clueless on D when he was that age. Not saying he will be marc. But if you have a high bbiq and feel for the game you can develop your game. This kid seems to have that.

Maybe the cash is used to buy out Guillermo? Dooesn't make sense because he's seen as a stash guy needing to develop, but his buyout is listed as "unknown" on the internet. The $3 million might be earmarked for the buyout? Otherwise why not just buy up another stash pick? The money is reset now anyway.

It's really crazy isn't it? They just drafted like 4 big men and NO guards!

Maybe next year they do an all guard draft? Idk..

To the people splitting hairs over giving up 2 second rounders, think of it as trading a 38 year old for a promising young big <shrug>

the $$$ can be used in other ways. In trades outside of draft picks.

could be used in season as well. if there wasn't a player they wanted right now im sure they could buy one.

Maybe bring quinn cook or someone like that for summer league as a FA.
