Yeah, it’s gotta be Mike. Assuming we still have a roster spot open, I would expect Mike back. TC’s plan all along?!?

If that ends up being "it" in terms of the trade deadline, then I'll be pissed, unless they truly believe Shannon can right the ship by the playoffs and he proves to do just that. Just not enough dynamism off the bench except for Naz. Bones breaks out once every five or six games but it's not enough.

Herbert Jones and Alvarado? Jones is probably overpaid, but a great defender. Alvardo is an expiring contract if he opts out.

Word is the league is confused by the Pels. Worst team or 2nd worst in west. Have been offered minimum 2 firsts + players for both Herb and Trey and have turned them down. One minute they are trading everyone except Trey, Queen and Fears. The next they won't. They won't trade Zion. Then they will explore Zion offers. Make up your damn minds you retards!

It will be it. Ant in his presser wanted Conley back.


See, if they don't get Giannis, it's whatever. The ball's not in our court, but if the reports are true, we turned down an opportunity to add Coby White and they swear there's a plan B if Giannis falls through. That we can be furious about because now it means the front office is in denial and isn't seeing what we're seeing.

Giannis would be great, but we absolutely need a good point guard. Can't come out of this deadline without a guard who can play big minutes.

There is no guard out there available worthy of getting to play big minutes if you want someone for a 10-18 minute role, fine. But Bones can do that. I hate all the named options being bandied about. I want the ones that are not being floated. So i would rather wait for summer. You do not just aquire any PG just to aquire them.

BREAKING: The Golden State Warriors are trading Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Atlanta Hawks for Kristaps Porzingis, sources tell ESPN.

Hornets did waive Connaughton.

Even if you think Bones is capable of that, it's not enough. You need options, let alone options Finch deems playable.

The Wolves need guys that they can use if someone on the bench has an off night, because if Naz has an off night, the bench brings nothing and we likely lose. Add to it since Finch doesn't trust the options he has.

So we could potentially get Connaughton and Middleton! The plan is coming together!
