    hell no, I don't want any Ben Simmons mentality players on my team.

    Give me Hartenstein, he's been outstanding in the playoffs for the Knicks. He knows his roles, never complains, plays smart, can easily be our big coming off the bench.

    Oh, he succeeded all right... in getting his second contract. Which is apparently all he cared about.

    To paraphrase Rockets legend Rudy T...

    Never overestimate the soft heart of a loser.

    Remember when PHO got all that grief when they wouldn't max Ayton out?
    Turns out they knew what they were doing.

    Kinda like when everyone gave Jerry West grief when he wouldn't give up Klay for Kevin Love back when KL was averaging like 25 and 12!



    That's the ONLY v.g. it would be acceptable to do it for.
    Sorry, LoZ's the BEST all time franchise to this old-school gamer!

    Sounds like the board is more Austin curious than Ayton curious. Undrafted v former #1 pick.

    I mean they say "buy low, sell high"... We have a lot of cap space with not a lot of interesting targets, so if the price is right we could look at him as an asset Morey style.
