    Don't blame the Nets for trying to save money where they can. Deandre was deadweight and useless to them anyways, although that's a lot of 2nds to give up.

    It is… but saving $47 million will allow them to go try and buy them to make up if needed. If they’re good, they’ll be late 2nd rounders anyway.

    LMA coming back....and to the Nets. (we knew they would load up on quality size...and get it cheap)

    Not sure how I feel about this as he had serious issues going on.

    I believe he can and from what I remember he wanted a guaranteed contract to come over.

    Time out. IIRC he had the same heart situation that Hakeem had. Plenty plenty serious. Controllable. Also potentially fatal.

    Shirley. And all lives matter. We’ll all die, some of us one way some another. Happy?

    Uneducated (certainly on this specific issue), but happy that we all face potential fatal factors?

    you know when you really die?
    when you listen to doctors and the authorities and not follow your passion...

    Um… watching him play? Yah I guess if your judging him off googling his stat line it doesn’t look great as he hardly played on a stacked nets team.

    Dude hustles and is a really good rebounder and has a lot of upside as he really progressed with playing time in G league. Also fits our timeline.

    worst case we waste Anthony lambs roster spot?
