    Kaminsky said he is dedicated to reliving his college days by starting a fraternity.

    For some reason, Matthews’ minutes always drove me nuts. Definitively mediocre with limited upside.

    The move of Fernando is only interesting because the team justified playing him as “lob threat to KPJ”. I guess that’s off the table, so SenHub it is? Hopefully this means they’ll commit to more Garuba minutes behind Sengun to figure out if there’s anything there.

    Those are Thunder seconds. As close to late first round picks as you can get and still be in the second round.

    What are the plans for the guys we acquired? Are we waiving them?

    sign kris dunn to 4-yr non-gtd deal at the minimum.
    sign luka samanic to 4-yr non-gtd deal at the minimum.

    I wouldn't go that far. OKC is 2 games under 0.500 and 20th in the league. Still decent though.

    Addition by subtraction. Hollins and Silas can stop praising "lob threat".

    So how many actual vets are going to be playing in the rotation?

    Is Tate now going to be our senior salty veteran? That's sad.

    Our second rnd player KMj is smiling quietly now…he will start in second half of this season unarguably.

    The biggest upside from today IMO is more minutes for Tari, KMJ & Garuba.

    Don't underestimate Silas's ability to F things up, he may give all the minutes to NIx.

    Really hate that Bruno is gone, he is on a very cheap contract and could be a very serviceable backup in the future. It’s a mistake that the Rockets will regret.
