Drummond and Blake should feast tonight.

What’s up with Luke’s foot? Or does foot mean Stan stuck his up Luke’s ass for not playing D?

I'll take that exchange.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Would love to see Langston start to play well to get his trade value up a little before the deadline

No one is taking on that contract my friend...no matter if he averaged 50ppg the next week.

With Dwight & Luke out....I may seriously lose it if there's any type of all 5 bench lineup tonight. Seriously may lose it.

Ouch, no Luke and no Buycks is gonna hurt us.

SJ / Bullock
Bullock/Galloway
Ish / Galloway

They should all play close to 40 minutes.

We need more depth or we are ****. We are 1 serious injury away from being a disaster.

That was my thought exactly and then I realized there's not enough games left to prove he 7 million to season valuable.

$7M this year aint the problem...its the $14M the next two following seasons that makes the contract unmoveable. If Galloway was on a one year deal...could easily flip him to a team like Charlotte for Jeremy Lamb and 2nd and upgrade there. 3 year deal for a guy that's going to be on outside of the rotation ain't happening.

And I understand the need to overpay for free agents....the reason it does cost $7M to get Galloway but I don't understand the 3 years. Highly doubt many teams out there was offering 3 year deals to Galloway back in July.

You're preaching to the choir... I'm well aware if he was expiring he'd be movable.

We really didn't need those injuries. It's going to be tough with our lack of wing/guard depth.

Maybe this desperation from the lack of backcourt depth will prompt them to make a move.

We literally have 4 active players to fill the PG, SG & SF positions.
