Did he get another suit? He had on a teal one on draft night. Interesting coincidence.

:o :) I really like this guy coming off the bench. Add 25lbs of muscle and he's a stretch 4. Play him alongside Graham,Bouknight,Mcdaniels and Jones and you've got a fast 2nd group coming off the bench that can drain 3s and rebound and put up buckets of points in minutes.

Trade Rozier to Indiana for Turner and Hayward to GSW for Wiggins and a 1st rounder and you have a solid starting unit of
Ball Wiggins Bridges Washington and Turner. Keep Carey Martin and Martin to fill out bench.Ship Young and Lewis to Gboro.

WOW 52-20 here we come. :nod: :nod:

EDIT: I was wrong, that's Mobley wearing one. But JT says the suit isn't a new one.



Maybe Mitch was just making a joke about him having a teal suit on at the start of the press conference, and that was not why he missed the first one.

They must really see something in Thor. Means one of Richards/Carey Jr. is gone, as we don't have the spot. Frontcourt is crowded with PJ/Bridges/Plumlee/Kai/Thor/Carey Jr./Richards all as the 4/5, and Hayward and Oubre can play there too.

Out of Thor Carey Kai and Richards surely we will hit the jackpot on one of them

Haven't seen any numbers on Thornet's contract, but post-Oubre I've got them at about $1.36M in space; last year they gave top 2nd rounder Vernon Carey $1.35M.

We get killed with this scheme sending Plumlee to double on the perimeter. Not this time.

I mean it's a no brainer. He seems like a player the Raptors or Grizzlies would scoop up at the tail end of the first, what a find by Money Mitch

Between him, Kai, and Bouk its a HUGE offseason for development and depth going into next season.
