I'm thinking Leon is thinking trade for Westbrook, but he wants to slow play it and have Rockets to come to us. DSjr/Randle/Knox type deal

I just can't see Thibs rolling with Frank/DSjr/Payton at point guard when that was our biggest weakness last year.
I also don't see the point of keeping Randle, when he would take mins from 2 of our younger pieces to build around In Mitch and Obi

The thought of the Knicks making any of those moves is nauseating

Solid backup. Not much to praise or complain about

We really need to get Randle out of here. Dude's just clogging up the pipes. Obi/Mitch/Noel is fine for a big rotation.
BaF Lakers:

Nikola Topic/Kasparas Jakucionis
VJ Edgecombe/Jrue Holiday
Shaedon Sharpe/Cedric Coward
Kyle Filipowski/Collin Murray-Boyles
Alex Sarr/Clint Capela

Bench: Malcolm Brogdon/Hansen Yang/Rocco Zikarsky/RJ Luis Jr.

Signing young vets who are desperately trying to stay in the league as reclamation projects went so well last year. I can't imagine how it backfires this time.

The only thread of a plan here is to give Thibs D. Which is fine. But I still don't get where this is going. Maybe they just don't want to add any contracts past this next year but I do think the "big" move (not saying good) is coming.

So we have Mitch, Noel, Davis, Randle, and Toppin in the frontcourt. Not a single stretch guy LMAO. I guess we'll settle with Toppin shooting 30% from deep.

What was the 830 thing I missed? I assume pure BS from a poster no one has ever heard of?
