    After KPJ injury it was clear to me he needed to play in these couple of games
    Having an actual veteran point guard (even as flawed as he is) it would be a new test for this team.
    Specially to think about future trade moves and what kind of pieces you should focus

    By the eye test, team plays better offensively when DJ freaking Augustin is playing. Even if stats lie, at least its is more fun to the eye.

    Yeah I'm really not a gambler, especially for something as idiotic as "tip jar" bets on a forum. Again, you're missing the ****ing point. It's not about gutting the roster because of space, how the **** else do you match $47m in salary? You either trade 5-6 of your scrubs, or your good players. Do you think you can just make up salary out of nothing or are you just that bad at math?

    I mean tip jar isn't idiotic since it directly benefits Clutch and his website that you just happen to join. Supporting it is always ideal. And the tip jar is there for a reason

    you seem to be pretty up in arms about this. It's pretty simple. He's going to get traded at some point before next season. Don't think so? then don't. The tip jar bet is on the table

    Not really then insurance covers his pay.

    I figured this would happen, no way he sits a whole year without blowing a gasket.

    stone has to know it as well and is hoping he can negotiate a buyout.

    Let Wall play a bit before the trade deadline to show his health and game. This might help find a trade. However, just say "no" to giving up too much to do so.

    Let me illustrate how wrong you are by showing the maths if it were to happen this year with say the Heat as they have interest in him as a player. In order to match Wall's salary, the Heat would need to give us back approx 40 million. This is how they could get there:

    Butler + Herro
    Bam + Robinson
    Lowry + Robinson + Okpala
    Robinson + Herro + Tucker + Okpala + Martin + Strus + Oladipo + Haslam

    Basically, unless they include one of either Butler, Lowry or Bam, they'd have to give us basically the entire rest of their roster for us to trade Wall to them. So again, show me one ACTUAL trade proposal for Wall's $47m contract for any team in the league that you consider likely? I'll wait.

    this doesn't have anything to do with the post. still no tipjar bet that you seem so sure that wall won't get traded? ok. cool. ill just be sure to re-bump when he does get traded though. I definitely don't miss out on these things

    Again, not going to make a bet for a tip jar on a random internet forum. What the **** do I care about benefitting a website? It's a forum in 2021, if it dies (like pretty much 95% of all internet forums did a decade ago) then I'm sure I'll survive. I don't live here like some of y'all.

    So basically, you have no argument so you're using a straw man of a tip jar? Cool, glad you admit you're an idiot and dead wrong. Imagine trying to use a straw man like a 6 year old kid and thinking you won an argument.

    yeah. bc cf's has been around for a long time. someone who freeloads a few months ago obviously doesn't know that. but you seem to want to catch up with how much you post since

    you did back up. you backed right out of a simple tip jar bet. brokey. that's how i always know if folks just spew random stuff on the net, when they hide from the tipjar. it's ok. you're not the first and won't be the last.

    During this Losing Streak Only Jaesean Tate has Increased his Trade Value the Most.

    I know he is fan favorite but why not trade Jaesean Tate to the Warriors for Johnathan Kuminga.

    The Warriors Announcers Love Jaesean Tate.

    Would be great but I think GS has a plan with Kuminga and if I am right he could be more valuable than Wiseman if he can defend from 2-5.

    I doubt they are dumb enough for that.....plus he could be a 15 ppg scorer.
