    wow, Sacramento already gave up on Robinson.

    but I didn't like him all that much as a draft pick so idk about this.

    Morey said he wasn't going to make a splash lol...

    Yeah, getting a top 5 draft pick is not much to him I guess.

    I'll take it for the moment...hopes he develops with time.
    Man.... Big smoke screen there with Terrence

    I was confident that they viewed TJones to be better than the 14th picks in PPat and MMorris

    Robinson is very athletic but the only problem is he doesn't seem to know how to play basketball. Why Morey?

    What is wrong with Sacramento?

    I remember how high they were on T-Rob. How they were open to trading their pick - except if T-Rob somehow magically slips to them. And did anyone else see that YouTube video where about 10.000 people were welcoming him in Sacramento?

    Now I don't know how much of a bust he was so far - but if you are so excited about a player, at least five him some time - and don't give him away for basically nothing (PPat is fine, but he will never be more than a borderline starter - Douglas and Aldrich are obviously throw ins).

    And Morey? Back at gambling. T-Rob has a ton of upside - star upside I would say. And he didn't have to give up any piece he wan planning with. And in the process he is clearing cap space to be real players at the deadline. T-Rob might be a bust, but this move makes a ton iPod sense on multiple levels.

    Garcia's contract next year is governed by a TEAM OPTION.

    Further elevating morey to god-teir GM
