    My dear Apache, I'm so down right now, that I don't expect anything more. I don't dislike Shumpert, but I wanted him as a buyout player.

    Baldwin can’t shoot looking at his stats.

    Stauskas is about 35% so not great. Can he defend? I’m guessing no.

    I have a feeling Baldwin gonna be the best player from this trade. Whenever Morey makes a trade for a no name point guard, it usually turns out well for us.

    Tyler Ennis wants you to hold his jockstrap.

    No, it's unlikely to happen.

    This is a good point. Unfortunately, it seems like there's a real fear that Wade will be cut or traded.

    Don’t be down my friend. Moving Knight was necessary for both roster spot and financial freedom this upcoming summer.

    Chriss was/is an expiring contract so to move him and not buy him out is for opening a roster spot.

    Don’t be surprised if Shumpert gets moved for an attempt at Mirotic or another player.

    Just because Stauskus is white and unathletic, it doesn't mean he can shoot. He can't shoot, and I have no idea how he's still in the NBA.

    If we will have any buyout target, I think we can waive Baldwin r even Clark is possible.

    I did remember CP3 gave Baldwin some very positive comments last season.

    This makes me happier. Still a waste of a first round pick but at least we can get excited when one of these guys hit a 3.
