In unrelated news, Tyus Jones was out due to health and safety protocols.


Hmm... conveniently leaving out that the Grizzlies were without Desmond Bane -- as well as Dillon Brooks and Kyle Anderson -- and played the reigning champs. Not sure the great Tyus Jones would have made the difference.

Got 'em, Q!





[Note: But... I'm still firmly in the camp with Cam that the Morant/Jones thread remains one of the most spectacularly bad takes this board has seen yet hasn't been treated as such.]

Just heard from a reliable source that the reason why everyone other than Edwards and Towns has been made available is actually to dump salary to be able to sign Tyus Jones this offseason to whatever contract it takes to bring him back home. Hopefully Tyus will be willing to give a bit of a hometown discount and not demand a full max contract.

I heard that too, monster...but I don't understand the "other than Edwards and Towns" part. Go big or go home!

I know why they aren't willing to deal Towns or Edwards in order to get Tyus but I can't divulge that info at this time.

Millsap is very available right now.


Layman /McLaughlin for Millsap /Carter works.

Just watched a couple videos. I'd like to see another angle but it looks completely accidental as he wasn't even looking at the ball. He shouldn't have had his hand out there but how did the refs not see that?

Cousins 10 day with Nuggets. I would have liked to have seen the Wolves make that deal

A friend of mine that's is a Bucks fan was asking me a couple weeks ago me the Bucks let him go. I assume it's all about salary. It looks like he played well there. I have a bit of a soft spot for Cousins for some reason.
