    Players understand that Ben still has a lot to offer the game. Do not sleep on this move if you're the type of poster who can't even play.

    Anyone know what McLemore's defense is like? He's only 26, so that alone gives him an edge over Green who's 7 years older.

    These type of comments are the worst lol.

    Any way, talented former lottery pick who can shoot it. As a minimum signing, no objection. As usual, on minimum guys my threshold is pretty low. If they can shoot I'm down for the experiment.

    Only issue I have is I think we are missing a big 3 that can play across the 4 and this dude is 6'5.

    For the nights when the greenlight malfunctions, and flash Gordon can't hit the side of a barn,..... Break glass and insert McLemore!

    Hahahaha
    You can say you like the move. But I wouldn’t go as far as saying someone who doubts a guy that hasn’t accomplished a thing since entering the league in 2013 that he doesn’t understand because he doesn’t play.

    I mean. Morey knows. You and I don’t. He’s the expert. But honestly, I have no idea what the hell is going on. You don’t need a compelling argument to think we need forwards. The Clippers roster looks so much nicer.

    Glad Harden and Westbrook are the coolest though. We have that.

    Back to this video. BMac playing with Westbrook and Rivers. I am a KU fan who always thought he would become a good pro. His handle is shaky, but his shot is pretty. Great athlete. I like the move, but there's some bias.

    Who needs normal or even small ball. This season we are pioneering micro ball. :D

    Which is fine. He shouldn't be playing a lot of minutes. If he is, that means something really bad happened (injuries / suspensions).

    look at his username. It's a shtick. It's clearly a member of the BigBum Beardnation group who is clearly just alternates of that same crew from a few years ago that would say H-Tine all the time and comment on anything.

    Think this is it for the offseason? I count 15 players.... I know that a handful are NGs but I think they sign maybe 1 or two more NGs for camp and make Chiozza and Frazier 2 ways.

    Westbrook/Rivers/Chiozza
    Harden/McLemore/Frazier
    Gordon/House/Green
    PJ/Clark/Bennett
    Capela/Chandler/Hartenstein

    At least it'll be fun to play as the Rockets in NBA 2k20.
