Wolves are the cuckolds of the NBA

Napier and Graham could be useful players. Both signed for dirt cheap. Fun we will have had both guys named Shabazz now. :)

If they keep him Napier gives them a guy that can help as depth at the guard position. Graham was a solid wing for the Pelicans a year ago and shot well. He increased his volume for the Nets but his percentage dropped. This is not an exciting move but I like it for the margins.

They'd be up against the hard cap between five players. That's not good.

WTF is their end game??? lol

This whole thing is really strange. I'm still trying to figure out why Rosas released Cam Reynolds even though Cam's contract was non-guaranteed. I'm hoping there are logical explanations for all of this based on information we're not privy to. But I can't help but become increasingly skeptical. I refuse to believe that we have the second coming of David Kahn running our front office. It can't be that bad, can it??

Are we gonna sign anyone? Lots of good bench bigs are coming off the board.

Good point on keeping them as we do need to fill out the roster. The cash were getting might be enough to cover their salaries so we may end up with two players for free.

I don't understand this at all - I don't think we can even take them on unless we are using an exception - I would hope that is not happening.

It was a little over a year ago those guys were solid rotation players on playoff teams. I mean they were even last year and they didn't have good shooting numbers. If we keep them and we actually have a system and coaching staff that enhances abilities...it could help on the floor staying competitive and they have cheap contracts so it would make them easy to move for 2nd rounders for teams looking for a boast around the trade deadline. This is the type of stuff the Nets did to get where they are today.

Graham is a vet min deal so we can just take him and the Wolves have a small exemption from the Butler deal from patton's contract. It will be interesting to see how much cash they got too. It's just a bonus nothin wrong with getting it.

DLO at 29 million sounds really high for him. I'm glad he went to GS.
