    Never even heard of Tim Bolt, but he will be missed.

    Anybody think he makes it without Chriss in the roster. I think Chris’s is going to get traded at some point

    What’s up with signing Tim Bond and then waiving him within 24 hours? I’ve seen a number of teams do this in the last couple days. I guess it’s so they can play on that team’s G-League team. Does that really give them the rights to those players?

    Word on the street is that he is now one year away from being one year away.

    It was fun thinking this guy could have been great. I am surprised how slow his foot speed is. He is way too slow to run him at 3.

    I bet he becomes something in 3 years and Cluchtfans will say Morey made a mistake waiving him.

    Gary Clark made him expendable. I liked what I saw from him in the preseason though, I hope he gets a spot on the RGV and we get to see how some time in our system helps him develop for a year. You can’t teach that combination of length and athleticism.

    Yeah I'd like to see him with a year of C under his belt. Pick and roll young blood, stop floating out there for crap threes.

    It's about contracts --> I hope Bruno is available and catches on with us after all said and done so he gets a ring, too. I think he can help us and we could help him. It will be better sweet IF we see him on another team. I truly only wish him the best... (under the table agreement, please)
