That's like getting an STD discounted.

I wouldn't want one for free, it's not a money issue.

It's like getting a discounted STD but without the pleasure that typically precedes it.

We SHOULD NOT start Justise at PF, we'll end up killing his long term development.



Dragon / Weber

TJ / Rich

Justise / Rich

D.Williams / J.Jhonson

Whiteside / Reed

==============

That's the best 10 man rotation I can think of for us, which makes me wonder - what the hell are we doing signing Ellington and Waiters?!

Tanking with 3 max contracts and a poison pill sittin' upright, sounds like a bad hustle

Hopefully they're up to something and not dancing to randomness

Trade deadline Bish. Stay woke. :)

Boogies in my eyes cause I stay woke, stil sounds like some backward hustlin' to me. I don't think they'll tank because it's not very logical but Riles is qwik so I'll keep my eyes on him

I'm watching.

2 year deal with a player option...Jesus Christ.

Am I the only one that saw Waiters play these past few years? what exactly does he do well? where is the upside for this?

Unless we're playing him big minutes and going for that top 3 draft pick. I think he'll be great in that role.

But just the thought of seeing TJ and Rich or Justise on the bench while Spo plays Ellington and Waiters...God give me strength...

Why did we sign both Williams and J.Johnson? Very similar games. I see no differences in them.

Time out, Waiters is a 2 year deal?

Mion probably back-ups TJ if Rich plays the 3, and if Bosh wiggles back then JJ or Williams lose their minutes. I have a feeling we see TJ at the backup 1, so that Mion and Ellington gets burn. Have to admit that our backup unit could have used a scorer(*chucker in this instance) if Bosh doesn't return./ Hue, this is a heap

Conflicting reports. Woj says 2 yr player option next summer. Original report says one yr.

Guys, come on. T. Johnson, J. Johnson, Waiters, Williams, and Reed is the bench rotation. Ellington, Babbitt, McRoberts, and whichever other bench guys we keep are situational role players/scrubs.

Our wing isn't particularly overcrowded. Tyler is going to play point guard.

Ellington second year is not garantee. So it looks like it will be a battle between Waiters and Ellington.

If we can save Whiteside why not take the chance on saving Waiters. I accept Waiters with open arms.
