Nah lol...you fired for constantly saying in the beginning of the season that WG was🗑

Is this a serious question? Didn't we do the same exact thing with Randle?

If he balls out you think the team is paying $15-20 million a season for Rui?
IF he balls out, he's kind of what they needed and would be worth it.

Doesn't have the ideal 3 & D combo, but he's a big body forward that can get buckets.
 
Rui balling out would be good. We would have his bird rights.

Kuz took a relative discount when he first signed with us. Doubt he’ll accept anything less than 20-25 mil this time.

What’s so good about Cam that made ATL and NY give up on him?
Well the Hawks did draft Hunter who plays the same position as Cam with the 4th pick in the same draft so that was never going to work. Can’t remember exactly but they may or may not have had Bogdan and Hunter around that time as well.

As far as NYC, well Thibs hates young players that’s all I got 😂

But, we’ve seen lesser talented guys like Wenyen and Stanley come in and make an impact so for the cost of a future second round pick it’s worth the risk to me.
 
This is especially sad when you think about the 5-6 games We tricked off this season because we were unable to close out opponents. We could easily be the 4 or 5 seed right now

Yep. Even if we won 3 of those 6 we gave away

And you can even argue the Sac home game we lost, the Christmas game up 12 at halftime, Charlotte at home, the Cle game when AD sat out with a cold…..damn near 10 games we should’ve won. If we win half those games……
 
Stephen Jackson would be a $35M player today

There's actually a ton of them out there...

The problem Lakers only like players 6'4 and under.

Max Christie will fit that mold eventually.

Bane NO
Bridges DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Cam Johnson NO
Crowder YES
Jerami Grant NO
Dort HE CANT SHOOT
Harrison Barnes H
NO CAUSES NATURALLY A SCORER
Josh Hart NO
Caleb Martin NO
