    Just speculating from watching him a few times in the past few months, but I think Bogut's back is toast. He might play minutes again somewhere this season but I think he's on his way out of the NBA very soon due to health reasons.

    What are you talking about?
    Nene only makes 3 1/2 million per year.

    With a payroll that is over a $100 million, Nene's salary is a drop in the bucket.
    If we need to trade him, his contract is not going to be an issue.

    How come you are always crying about people jumping on you when you make a thread yet you are always doing the same thing to other people?

    Screw Bogut. I don't want his douchebaggery rubbing off on our players. Guy still doesn't know how to set a legal screen. He broke his leg last year cause he was trying to trip a player who blew by him. It'd be as bad as Derek Fisher actually playing for the Rockets.

    How can you call Black's performance mediocre. Did ppl really have high expectations from Black? I didn't.

    Drop one injury prone player for another?! :eek:

    BTW, yes, he is hurt (not "saving him").

    Jan. 4:


    Nene (right knee contusion) is listed as out in the game notes for Saturday's matchup vs. Detroit. Nene was unable to finish Wednesday's game and was sidelined for Thursday's loss to Golden State as well.

    I certainly don’t think you should waive Nene or anything dumb like that, but he can’t be relied on nightly so getting Bogut makes a ton of sense.

    Only thing that stinks about it is I really find Bogut repulsive personally but I’m willing to give him a clean start.

    Black has a good contract for a trade so keep him and try to use him for a trade or just use him as an emergency C.

    Also if Nanu isn’t beating Black for minutes at this point it’s time to waive him or trade him.

    However it’s not really the C spot that bothers me. It’s having zero true PF’s that can play in a two big lineup. Ryno isn’t getting job done by himself and needs to move to the bench.

    Nene is healthier than Bogut.
