    Tyler Ennis, Bobby Brown, Ronnie Price, Pablo Prigioni ... LOL

    Hey, what's Andrew Goudelock up to? Andre Miller is looking for a job!



    Scraping the bottom of the barrel are we? Thanks Mauri.

    There's no way price should be considered even close to a good defender .

    How dare we consider options to backup the 1 when our starting PGs out for the first 20 games.

    Seriously, what's your deal dude? You've been so pissy for the last six months at least.

    I think i was respectful, you can disagree with someone without trying to demean them by saying their argument is ridiculous.... anyway its irrelevant now, they are both staying put, we just cut Ennis.

    It's not personal, I just thought what you said was grossly incorrect. Apologies my friend

    Agree - Morey has to be interested in moving Brew, if he can, with his salary being both an impediment to a deal, and a plus for salary matching purposes. Will something play out sooner, rather than later with Brewer? If Donuts ends up getting a roster spot when the dust settles (fingers crossed that he's healthy enough and reaches a reasonable deal), I'm really hoping we left room for Wiltjer. Let the kid prove that he can hit those shots when it counts at the highest level, or let him show that he can't cut it. I think he's showed enough in preseason to be given a chance. Moving Brew might be the key that unlocks room on the roster, and not just for Wiltjer.

    What better options out there have you come across for backup PG? We all would like to know

    Couldn't agree more Deck.

    On Wiltjer, I'm in the camp of really wanting to keep this kid. No he won't be a star, he probably won't be a front end of the rotation guy either. I do have confidence that he will give you great 3 point shooting when called on. I think he will get many open looks in this offense when given the opportunity and he seems to not suffer from a lack of confidence. Cannot have enough shooters on this team. Yes he will suffer in some areas, but I can live with it.

    LOL. Surely would look that way.
    But I'm not so much PRO Brown as I am anti Ennis and Payton.
    Looks like coaches and FO agreed. I think we made the right move with what we had to work with

    And don't worry, you're not gonna see me petition for him to start during the season

    Dmo can score when defended, Kyle can not at this moment in time.

    I dunno, looked like Wilt had a nice drop-step and a slippery eel post-move, along with several surprising floaters, when defended in the preseason. He can score inside the arc.

    This is silly. Remember Capela when he first came into the league? Everyone was saying he should have been stashed in Europe. You can't expect kids to come into the NBA and instantly be successful. Let him develop his and his game for a year or two (if he is showing signs) before you cut him.

    If he had any semblance of a 3 pt shot all 30 teams would line up to sign him.

    at least out of all the young players waived he actually does have a lot of potential still.

    Kind of surprised they let Mitch Mcgary go, I kind of remembered 2 seasons ago there were a stretch he actually played better than Adams.

    Not true,

    the trade is a like a surgery to remove a tumor.

    What you will get is a patch to your wound and eventually you are going to remove that patch.
