I don't want him for on court production, I want him in the locker-room. He'll be our Marvin Williams for the year.

i feel you but man.... i'm at the point where if its veteran leadership at the cost of awful production or completely unreasonable contracts, why not just get that out of an assistant *coach*?

That's what coaches are for. We can get embarrassing on the court products from all these second round picks we have to develop. If we need a voice in the locker room or bench then just give a guy like Marv or Vince a tie instead of wasting a roster spot, cap space, and playing time for someone who has a chance of getting better

If more players transitioned to coaching right after retiring I'd be all for that. They usually don't though, and I think there's value in having a likely future hall of famer suiting up with you every game.

That'd kinda negate Michael Porter Jr - who some are super jacked about - though, wouldn't it?

Baynes would be a perfect fit for us. Shouldn't be too pricey and would be a good vet to be around the younger guys.

i think MPjr still needs to come off the bench, plenty of talent and athleticism but man he makes terrible decisions some times

better rookies and young players have been given away in win-now moves

i don't think any denver fans would be too upset... if blake is healthy, he's a great addition to denver's style of play and really solidifies their core going forward. doubt it happens, but its definitely interesting

Yikes, 4/64 for a 31 year old Marcus Morris seems pretty awful for LAC. He was pretty awful for them last year and his biggest contribution was trying to injure Doncic in the playoffs.

Lol, Batum is still making like 10 million more than all these guys next season... That contract was an abomination.

I'm not settling for the fat chick this off-season. And thankfully Kupchak doesn't seem to trend chubby-chaser.

I'm more than content with us doing absolutely nothing right now. Good lord

Centers are still dirt cheap. And we have junk there.

Heard it reported that the Plumlee and Grant contracts were perfect for Detroit cap to do a sign and trade with Denver sending out Blake Griffin.

I give up. Play PJ at the 5 and go gangster.

Post #298 » by **Diop** » Sat Nov 21, 2020 4:28 am

so the Jrue holiday deal is expanding to include a 3rd team. Could Mitch be trying to use some cap space to milk out a draft pick and the veteran back court help?
