    I don't care about House and Duval, but really liked Adel. I guess in the end we had to bet for Vincent Edwards, and we preferred a chance on Caboclo and promised a spot to Gentile?
    Anyway don't like the decision.

    Lmao thanks for the entertainment Clutchfans. Some of you guys just can't be serious...

    Whiteside?

    They are both extremely rare unique cases though.

    Remember when everyone here was so high on Scott Machado?

    Lol well it looks like teams were right about Whiteside. Dude got paid and reverted back to being a scrub.

    But we have time to develop Vincent Edwards and Rob Gray.

    Deng played great during SL he should have been offered a spot.

    I liked Duval too, but I liked Adel more than him. I wanted them to replace Brown and Hunter as 2 way players. Good luck to them, but never against the Houston Rockets.

    You are a manager and met somebody you would LOVE to work for you but the crew is maxed out. You offer this person a job in the mail room with the promise to promote him when possible.

    This person thinks about it and gets a better offer doing the job that you would like him to do. Is that your fault?

    That hold that Thibs has on former players is tremendous. Reminds me of Rick Adelman. I would have liked Deng on the cheap, but honestly, there's a reason the Lakers said "see ya later!" He just doesn't have what he had and Thibs is kind of to blame in that.

    In this case it makes perfect sense. Thibs is known for using his players for far too many minutes. For someone who is minutes-starved as Luol Deng is that has to seem like a great proposition.

    Butler I thought wanted out? Rose didn't seem to get along with him in Chicago either.
