    Yeah that is right. These guys are quality depth with a tinge of potential. They aren’t without risk, but what is a team crushed under salary cap constraints going to do?

    Man, all of these first round picks, none of them over 21, and we're going to trade them all away for peanuts just to make room for Dillon Brooks and maybe Brook Lopez's last contract. What a waste.

    I mean, what did we think was gonna happen when we locked onto KPJ, drafted Jalen, held onto EG way too long, rostered and played Gary Bird over Josh Christopher? JC didn’t have much of a pathway to develop and I thought it was inevitable that he was gonna be traded.

    We’ve had 3 yrs of KJ, and big minutes in a starting role last year. He’s still super young, and does some things well, but his shooting regression and poor defense is a concern, and I don’t see a future stating caliber wing. We’re not gonna pay him; he’s gone.

    those are the two guys I’d prioritize moving.

    Christopher should have stayed in school another year or two he is another classic example of a guy going pro who had no business in the NBA.

    Sam Amico is a fraud. I wouldn't put any stock in that unless Amico was just quoting someone else.

    Sam Amick = Yes
    Sam Amico = No

    Garuba is our best 3 point shooter!

    He seems like a Udoka guy because he brings the D, and you could tell he was working on that 3 point shot last year.

    The best thing to do is keep him as one of your bench guys next year and don’t sign Dillon Brooks!
