    I'm not a Shump fan but man I hope they re-sign him. They have his bird rights. If they let him go we lose that salary space for nothing. Sign him, hope he contributes and if not hope he is a tradeable salary for something that is useful.

    Only problem with that decision is Game 6 Kerr opened his bench up to 11 guys and Mike stayed with the 6. A coach playing 6 guys sends a message to the team that he doesn't believe in them. When that happens why shouldn't the starters also adopt that same feeling that their backups are inept and underqualified to back them up. See this is what the problem is with having Trust and togetherness thru tough times on our team. You have to allow guys to struggle and fight together. This is why MDA cannot lead to a championship team because when it gets tight he doesn't believe in nobody but the Stars

    Can the Kings sign Shumpert? Pretty sure they’ll pay him more than the minimum. He fit in well there.

    Far"weed" kept calling in sick even before the playoffs even started. Everyone knew Far"weed" was the weakest leg in the small ball system. Nene got a few minutes due to him having the most experience.
    The rivers injury fakes was the last straw for the coach to only play the highest paid players since the highest paid players had the most to lose.

    You can't fault the decision to play six players because every game came down to four points or less.

    I want rivers.

    I don’t really care aboout any of the others unless it’s for the minimum.

    Shump is second on my to keep list after rivers but there is a big gap between the two imo.

    If we can keep rivers and flip EG for butler we’ll be a much better bigger and more well rounded team from the 1-3 position.

    I like eg he better than rivers but rivers can do stuff well enough to offset EG loss with the addition of butler at true 6’7 SF with 2 way talent and he’s a star.

    I'm not convinced we can keep Rivers even if we want to.

    Shumpert is Bird, it does not count against MLE
    House is restricted non-bird.It counts against MLE.

    I would ask you what game you watching . Look at the minutes. a Bench player spelling the starters is not just getting in the game is playing 15 to 25 minutes. Look at the game 6 minutes and see how our guys played heavy minutes vs Golden State. The minutes load on the starters was in there favor. Real news

    what about the minutes. 9 players played. which completely dispels your 6 man fake news. you counted 11 for GS. why does those minutes apply to them but not the rockets. makes no sense whatsoever. stop it. find something else to pick and do better

    Look at the heavy load on our Starters. There starters got a blow . You may not make a difference but just watch the fresher team tends to have their legs underneath them. If you don't think so that's fine but show mea team that has advanced that wins playing HEAVY minutes on 6 guys only and playing 3 guys token minutes?

    Yep sure did The Bucks had 2 guys off their bench that played 27 minutes a piece the other 2 guys played 11 and 14 respectively. No Starter played above 37 minutes in a tight game. Totaling a true 9 rotation. Did we have a game where we had 9 guys that played that amount of minutes. Tell me the game cause you are confusing me

    take a look at how many toronto guys played in game 7 vs philly. their most important game of the season thus far

    and philly uses the same type of rotation the rockets do.

    "true rotation" :rolleyes:put your glasses on

    Did Toronto win or the bucks? Didn't you say to look at the game last night. Why are talking about the Philly game? Toronto wont beat the Bucks playing that rotation right. 4k vision will tell you that
