Lockeroom issues are being overblown. Certainly not ideal but he's still a MASSIVE upgrade over Gortat.

I like what you guys have done this offseason so far talent wise considering the situation. If the team is healthy I think they’ll be fighting for home court so long as everyone can get along.

Wall, beal, oubre, porter, Howard, is a really solid starting 5 with some some useful role players in rivers, green and Morris off the bench.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see any of Boston, philly, Toronto, Washington or Milwaukee in the ecf or even finals at this point.

They really did create some nice depth/options. Didn’t give away any assets and added Green/Howard/Brown/Sanon/Bryant/Rivers

Who's left that's worth the MLE?

Jamal Crawford. Imagine a Rivers, Crawford, Oubre, Green, Mahinmi bench.

I would prefer to play Sato (who is far better than Rivers and Crawford combined) and our rookie, Troy Brown, who is also better than Crawford.

Jabari Parker with the MLE if they still have it? Lol

You’ve gotta love it. Green was 26th in RPM for small forwards, pretty good on both ends, Howard was 27th in RPM for centers, also pretty good on both ends.

Both signed for the minimum. That’s great stuff

And for the record, Rivers was 48th in RPM for PGs and 23rd in ORPM.

Weiss says Tax MLE

Bontemps and Candace are saying minimum

Which is it?

On the Wizards Tipoff podcast, Chris Miller mentioned that Dwight Howard basically wants to change his rep. and not be the guy teams trade all the time. That teammates get tired of. Good luck with that but at least he wants to change.

No clue, I would trust the local writers over the National guys in this case

When was the last time we had a center that could put up a 32&30 game? Lol

Wall Sato
Beal Rivers Meeks
Oubre Brown
Porter Green Morris
Howard Mahinmi Bryant Smith

That’s 14 players already, not counting Aaron White or Devin Robinson.
