    McHale seems to love him..I really miss Adelman he simply refused to play all the bad players Morey gave him.

    Looking like Adrien plus one other. Thinking Black is in. Still have a hard time seeing Dorsey cut. As hard as it is, I would cut Garcia as I don't see him playing much unless Pap plays a lot of
    PF.

    It's time for Garcia to wear a suit and tie and hold a clipboard like Juwan Howard.

    Dorsey is about to gorilla dunk his way off the team

    Load the Cannon for Canaan as he is about to get fired

    Adrien looked so good the first two games, and was really good for the Bucks the last few months of the season. Not sure what happened to him, or if its mental, but its been disappointing that he hasn't been that crash the glass guy tough guy we were hoping for.

    So Mitchell, Powell, Covington, and I guess we are comfortable adding Adrien.

    One person goes from -

    -Canaan (guaranteed $ next year)
    -Dorsey (guaranteed $ next year)
    -Garcia (final year, and can't be traded w/o consent)
    -I. Smith (final year, .9 mil guaranteed)

    Kinda seems like Garcia would be my person cut, but I have a feeling he stays. The relationship built and the fact that he basically helped the Rockets out this Summer makes me think he might have been guaranteed a spot before the preseason even started. Just my intuition there, but Im going to be surprised if he gets waived even though I think its the obvious decision at this point.

    (still some time left for Canaan to play Smith off the team, Adrien could play great the next 2 games, etc. We shall see.)

    Probably Dorsey and Ish are the likely candidates, also Black more because of his contract than his ability

    Canaan's future is also not that bright
    Garcia does nothing of value

    I honestly don't see Ish getting cut after him clearly being the backup PG in the first 6 preseason games.

    Relax. We can get another PG through the Dleague, another Beverley via Europe, as trade filler.

    It is not that farfetched

    I think Ish & Canaan make it. As does Black. I think Dorsey/Adrien get cut. And having to account for Capella as a roster space takes one of those jobs away. :-/

    I'm also impressed that Adrien can still be productive despite playing hurt. He really wants to make this squad and I want this guy as well even if we have to move Capela because I am confident that Adrien will help the Rox this season. The Rox will be a better team when he is able to heal and get back to the trenches...

    There is no way they keep Ish. Ish sucks and he should not be allowed to touch the ball again. Lets start looking at other options.
