Assuming no unreported trades, we're looking at a slightly revamped lineup of: Lowry / Dragic / Ish Martin / Lee Buddinger / T-Will Scola / Patterson / JHill / Jeffries Hayes / Miller / Thabeet T-Will is almost certainly going to get some PT to show what he's got, but I doubt he'll start. Lee might even slide over to SF as the starter. Another major issue that DM and Adelman will have to address is that the team has just traded its co-captains. We are now captain-less. My vote goes to the Chuckwagon.
Is Thabeet gonna be on the main roster? Wouldn't be surprised if he goes to the d-league for the rest of this season at least, especially knowing Adelman's style with raw players.
The Chuck Wagon should definitely be named captain. He's been the most consistent player on this team. I like the new roster and am excited to watch them play, as well as the number of draft picks we have now. Free T-Will!
Might as well send Thabeet to the D-League. He sure isn't going to get any playing time under Adelman.
i believe chuck was already a co-captain or is that Scola. I dont think AB was ever considered a captain.

I saw that but I did think even the Battier for Thabeet matched salaries. How did we get Ish in there too?
Wow! we have 4 players from last year's draft. 3 of them are lottery pick. And the guy that gets the most minutes?? The 2nd rounder :grin:
We should just waive them both. Why would you play either of those guys? I'm not understanding the plan here.
s/b - I saw that but I did NOT think even the Battier for Thabeet matched salaries. How did we get Ish in there too?
Maybe Memphis is sending us another player? The Thabeet and Battier salaries are more than 25% apart.
Yea, because Adelman never plays young players. Except for, of course, I dunno, say: THE ENTIRE TEAM. Seriously, people. Name one young player aside from TWill that doesn't get playing time? There are a lot of reasons to knock this team. Burying young players is not one of them.
Doubt Thabeet plays under Adelman. Especially with Miller on the team. Hopefully Twill gets his shot, but I even doubt that. Adelman will prbly just play Lee at SF instead.
Our defense just got wrecked. A Budinger/Martin/Scola starting group is going to be extremely frustrating to watch.
