Can't shoot 3's, is a horrible defender, and then think about the mental aspect :roll:

Who's next, Deng or Robbie Hummel

WTF is the point? His injuries have destroyed him physically, do they really think he is better then Tyus? I don't.

I would have had little to no problem with Deng if he had been bought out... even though I'm quite sure he has nothing left in the tank. At least I could perhaps see the fit. With Rose, I can't see in any way how this makes us better.

I'm convinced Thibs uses a 2011 calendar

Well at least the delusional perspectives on Teague and Wiggins can be directed at a player who deserves the angst. Maybe Thibs did it to take the ire off Wiggins.

Haha. Poor Thibs. I can get the frustration but at worst you can say he's been average. We're 10 games above 500.

43 wins looks sadly academic now Q

I just want to point out that my 38 win projection could still be correct...

I guess I am not surprised how the Rose signing is being received. I, of course, am much more opTIMistic about the signing. Monster has the more correct perspective of being neutral...

Butler handling the ball is a very large part of our success thus far. Losing Butler puts that responsibility in the hands of Wiggins, Tyus or Teague. Wiggins sucks at creating offense for others. Tyus is not explosive enough to make a difference in crunch time. And Teague has been disappointing compared to many of our expectations this year.

Rose has the experience to maybe make a difference. He also has the advantage of being familiar with Thibs. I don't know if Rose has enough in the tank to do anything, but there ain't much downside, and potentially a lot of upside.

Thibs pursuit of Gibson has produced way more than anyone expected. I would think we should at least give this latest pursuit a chance...
