John Wall as a buyout candidate?  

Post#1 » by Paradise » Sun Nov 28, 2021 8:26 pm

So, John Wall is working out at The Summit which is located in Manhattan.

Would anyone take Wall as a buyout candidate once Houston eventually caves?

If he and Harden are willing to bury the hatchet, yes. We need another ball handler

No way. Wall sucks.

We need to find a way to **** get Kyrie back. Enough is enough.

To be fair, you said the same about Blake.

I would see in January whether or not John has refined his skills and playing style, to complement our team. He has the ability. He played like wet poo last season, and I wonder if an additional 8 months to recover from injury helps him look like his former self. If not, we can always cut him. We'll have to make room for another player, but we have a couple of guys filling a roster spot without a defined role.

I just don't think his game even if healthy would benefit this team. We are already too rogue on offense as it is. Adding another dribble penetrator would just add more static to the offense and take shots away from Durant, Mills, Aldridge, etc.


(especially an aging one off injury)

Reminds me of an empty stats player, needs the ball to run up stats but doesn't result in more wins. But on a buyout you certainly take it.

Na I'll pass. I think we should cut Milsap too, he doesn't fit and we could use someone else
