    He didn’t make a fist, it was more of a shove. If the NBA suspends him for that than Draymond shouldn’t play more than 20 games a year.

    I’m just glad that the Russ infatuation is officially over.

    Reeves would be a good get. We need a competent combo guard that can send Sheppard to the bench for seasoning. Of course, he might have to be part of the trade which would still leave us one backup guard short.

    He cost too much as he is looking for a big payday. We already have money issues and at the apron and you wanna add even more to it lol.

    Players like Reeves end up the team killers they cost too much and make their team lack depth. Any player who isnt a star should only be making 25-30M. If he wants more than that he is overpaid already.

    Like compare Reeves to Nikhail Alexander Walker. They are very similar players but NAW is only making 15M and Reeves turned down a 22M extension from the Lakers.

    You must have reading comprehension issues. I clearly stated it would be going all in for this year as we wouldn’t be able to sign him next year and caveated it by saying only if they believed that Tari would not be re-signed next year. It would be traded a guy we can’t sign for a guy they can’t sign next year. I’m not even necessarily for the trade, but Reeves would be a perfect compliment to Amen in the starting unit.

    I think GSW gets a bit too much respect. They're going to be good, no doubt, but they have the same age and injury questions as the Clippers.

    Spencer Dinwiddie cut by the Hornets - a possible vet minimum insurance play for the Rockets?

    I mean if you're looking for a Fred Van Vleet replacement, his numbers last season look very, very similar. Hard pass for me though.

    Was out most of the evening and just watched Reed's and Okogie's highlights against the Hawks. I did not realize Okogie was so athletic. Maybe he'll make Ime forget about Holiday.

    Is it too early to add Okogie and Reed to the top 6 locked in rotation players to make 8? DFS will be 9 when he gets up to speed.

    Clint still needs to prove he's worth a dime.

    Not a doomer. But did our defense look a little bit worse with KD out there? It looked like our help defense and rotations were a little slower resulting in more easy layups.

    Of course KD is our closer and he looked dominant on the offensive side of the ball.
