Me too.

Our roster is short of bigs and have a 15th spot open, it's good to add a backup center like Kaminsky. And it will probably be a popular move for the fans in Wisconsin too.

While Kaminsky seems like an obvious guy to get, how is he doing with his structural damage in his knee/patella that he injured last season? Does he have anything left in the Tank?

I would too. But based on what people have said here about being hard capped I don't think they can right now. And I'd doubt Frank sits around waiting so his salary is lower later in the year. Very good chance Ersan is sitting there like Birdman waiting to sign on the day his pay is low enough.

I don’t think having 3 “elite shooters” makes up for the rest of the team’s shooting, which definitely isn’t solid. Numbers don’t lie. I love Jrue, he’s a below average 3 point shooter. Donte is below average. Giannis is below average. Brook is below average. Pat, Wilson, Craig, Thanasis...if we are relying on Khris, DJ and Bryn Forbes to carry the load re: three point shooting, it’s not going to look great

Average is 35%. Most of our guys are capable of that, and many have done it before. Then you have the clearly above average group: Middleton, Forbes, DJA, Portis, and Merrill.

the board has generaIIy made cIear that good shooters are consistentIy good shooters.... Iike they dont ever want guys to shoot under Ieague average for a month or something because thats inconsistent bad shooting. see guys Iike beaI and booker dont ever have months Iike that..... weII actuaIIy they do but they pIay for other teams and we dont watch them every night so you can cIaim they are good consistent shooters to make a point about what we dont have enough of. i know its confusing but this is how it works

I like how everyone of your comments lately has randomly included jabs at both Beal and Booker. Never seen someone get so upset about Middleton comparisons. :cry:

it's only preseason, etc. but Beal was 0-7 from three in his last game. The part I bolded is the truth.

RHJ. Woof.

The obsession with that bum with some on this board is weird.

Awful.

Noah Vonleh is the player I’d bring in if we could.

The role of defender whose offensive game is embarrassing is already filled anyway.

Portland likes Trent Jr why on earth would they do this trade?

I would love Trent here. I think he very well might be an elite shooter and I think his man defense is better than donte’s with donte’s off ball/team defense being better.

But, with what we saw in the bubble, I’d think it would take Donte+ Just to get Portland to listen. The plus is the question - I doubt DJ would be it, so it would likely need to be an asset we got back from a brook trade.

Trent Jr turned down their extension offer and they will have some cap challenges next year. I agree it probably would take more to move him though.

It will be interesting to see if there are any roster tweaks before the opener.
