    holiday is gone

    reed taking holidays rotation slot starting last night

    springer either stays or gets rerouted as part of a merged transaction tomorrow

    best guess he stays

    he could be cut clear waivers and then sign back here using a piece of the mle if we have some left over to a 4-yr deal if he agrees to sign cheap

    paying him extra this season to get him cheap for 2-3 years may be worth it especially ng

    his defense is fully developed he has decent shot base and mechanics just a little tweek to his release and he could easily become upper 30s to 40s on c and s 3 ball below the break and maybe more

    holiday gone

    We have 3 guys missing. Not sure if you realize injuries are the reason Tate is playing.

    this move reminds of the move for Kyle Lowry. Young player on a team stacked at the position. Throw in the over the cap factor pushing Boston to dump him and it has the makings of a really nice underrated move.

    also - there were no birds involved in the process of this trade. Maybe codman can hallucinate a connection for you guys, but I always preferred the schtick when it was doc rocket and there was actually a connection to real information being disseminated in code.

    Except Lowry got traded because of attitude issues in Memphis not because he was trash

    He was a third string point guard with talent blocking his way. Disgruntlement was never mentioned at the time.

    The trade I’m referring to is when we acquired Kyle Lowry from the Memphis Grizzlies but my memory was flawed. I thought we traded a second rounder when in fact we traded Rafer Alston for him.

    Was Milkhair coaching Memphis then?

    Jerry Springers son

    Zions dad a former Rockets legend. Walt Williams needs to help facilitate the deal.

    Good project. We can't afford to give him any minutes because we need Cam's scoring badly, but he seems like he has a bright future with some work on that jumper. Tired of that archetype tbh.
