Not Brooks. The former 1st overall pick, Anthony Bennett!

Darryl Morey strikes again.

:lol:

But seriously, I guess this is Morey's annual "take-a-shot" camp invite.

I actually think this is a solid move despite AB being a laughing stock over the past few years. Low risk, high reward. Morey is gambling left and right, and I don't fault him because this team needs a new narrative after all the improvements LAC and LAL have made and emerging as the favorites. I am still mourning over the loss of CP3 but we needed a change. I get it - for both financial, entertainment, media narrative purposes.

It's championship or bust, but we'll have a bit of fun while at it. :wink:

Well outside of Gregg Popovich, If D'Antoni can't make you look good, no coach can

If AB's work ethic doesn't improve playing with Westbrook, his career is over.
