Biyombo still can’t shoot and has the worst hands in basketball only now he’s 4 years older with worse athleticism. No thanks. I’ll take Harry Giles and his paper knees

Where's Bruno at?

Yes, I want Bruno way more than Biz. He's been bulking up, leaving his room looking for more food.

I've been on the #BringBackBruno bandwagon for a while now

I'm sure we can get Biz for the vet min which still gives us MLE flexibility to get another big and a wing.

We just lost 15 points and 8 rebounds a game off the bench. The bench depth is going to be horrid.

Kyle, Fred and Pascal are going to be playing HUGE minutes this season. The only guys off the bench capable of making a shot are Norm and Matt.

This season going to be rough.

Forgetting about Terence Davis

I'm not sure he will be in the league this season...

Our bench is Brutal Right now

Asif16 · Post #1706 » by **Asif16** » Sun Nov 22, 2020 5:48 am

Maybe trade for Capela or John Collins from Atlanta

Cousins is apparently getting interest from the Warriors and Rockets, and is still recovering. I think he won't be considered.

It hurts so much that we don't even know the status of Terrence Davis. Things are really taking a turn for the worse

Here is hoping that whoever else we add this offseason along with Flynn can be viable bench options along with Powell.

Is Skal worth considering at all? Henson? I love the hilarity of this situation. I actually just googled how old Larry Sanders is.

Almost need to bring back Gasol now
Sign Craig as well - try and be the best we can heading into next offseason with max slot available

We have too many small guards on the roster.

Well this really sucks, mostly because he went to the Clippers. He has to have known what a slap in the face that would be to Raptors fans after the Kawhi nonsense from last year.

At this point the best case scenario is probably to re-sign Gasol for $10 mil or less (hopefully less), and then split the MLE amongst 2 other bigs like Giles and Biz or something. That could be manageable, although we certainly would lose some floor spacing.

Get cousins since he could immediately be the starter and our medical staff might be able to help him recover as best as possible.

Giles is a far better project

We need to use some of the MLE on a 3/4 otherwise Stanimal is in the rotation.

we might just live with that and increase OG's minutes while playing more small ball with the glut of guards we have.

The market is looking bleak so we have to start settling for the bottom of the barrel guys. It is what is it is :-?

I thought he would be ready for the start of the season
