    Majority of those players you list at forward can play SG so can all the point guards.

    Either Stone is ready to ship out Alpi, Tari, Cam and the Picks for the Giannis or they’re resting older players on every back to back and load management.

    If we didn't sign Adam's, Capela would make me happy. But now, this makes me super happy. So proud to be wearing Rocks gear, now even more prouder.

    so we should’ve gotten a discount on the Adams deal (and I ain’t talking about his declining yearly salary) that we needed to spend real resources on another center. In the apron era, where every dollar counts/matters. And both got 3 guaranteed years. At least Jock only had 1 guaranteed (first) year.

    LOL ijs!

    Santi Aldama 3/52.5 (17.5)
    Steven Adams 3/39 (13)
    Luke Kornet 4/41 (10.25)
    Brook Lopez 2/18 (9)
    Kevon Looney 2/16 (8)
    Clint Capela 3/21.5 (7.1)
    Day’Ron Sharpe 2/12 (6)
    Paul Reed 2/11 (5.5)
    Mason Plumlee 1/3.6 (3.6)
    Luka Garza 2/5.3 (2.69)

    Horford is 39/40 but interested to see what he gets

    He is for sure better than Amen….currently.
    That isn’t debatable.
    Amen is my favorite player on the team, but he isn’t better than Alp currently.

    People want to forget that Amen can start at 1-4. He started at 1 for a significant part of the season last year when Fred was hurt. You can also play Tari and 2-4. This means you can also slide Fred to the 2 whenever you need to. The best outcome this season has Amen turning into the permanent 1. People are on here building rosters like its 2002.

    Thanks for confirming I won our convo. Good of you to tap out with the old "You don't know ball" comment.

    You have lost the plot.

    Any sane Basketball fan would want an upgrade


    newsflash.......Sengun will not turn into Jokic

    Lol as if Rafael Stone was such a rival of Rob Pelinka.

    Nothing supports your claims. It’s reputation and opinion based.
    Hence, you don’t know ball

    you have to be able to get off the ground to be a lob threat, so no.
