    Why though? Why not cut someone else. Gerald actually looked good in the pre season games?

    He is at least 20 pounds too heavy, but that will come off.

    uhhhh we never lead them by 20 at any point. I dont think we ever even lead them by 10 with Harden or Wall.

    I am very excited to see how Wood plays in our offense and the spots coach puts him in to create for himself and teammates. I have been surprised with the total lack of low-post or high-post play options involving Cousins. Am I missing something? I know we are playing five out, but that would add that "unpredictability" element that his been mentioned this year.

    Wall is great feel good story but he cannot go 33% from FT line.

    2nd game in row he has been a negative on the floor.

    -1 tonight and -4 the other night.

    Meanwhile Boogie was crap from 3 (amazing previous 2 nights) but is still +2.

    ah , damn. we will see how slick stone is.

    Im still not sure i fully understand. Its not a crunch with the roster spot , but with clemons salary effecting our cap ?

    id still rather cut grant if thats an option.

    Rather cut Brown or Grant over Gerald.

    Neither could hit a 3 to save their lives.

    Edit: Guess this cannot be done. Shet!

    Can Stone trade him to somewhere like OKC and get him off cap?

    What is quarter time?

    Again, we were not dominant, we did not come close to blowing them out at any point in time during this game. We did not look dominant.

    i think so .

    I dont know the full situation , but if we have to move him to keep green .. its definitely worth paying some team a second rounder to take on his deal.
