    He comes across as a b**** tho, didn't he say in a post game interview "I don't respect no body till they give me 40"? Then declined all media post game after getting 40 dropped on him.

    He better not be promised a starting role! He can come in behind Green / Tari / Martin / Jabari.

    We outbidding ourselves on Brooks.

    Silas and Stone gave us a horrible reputation with the last 3 years. It's no surprise, no1 wants to come here unless they're getting overpaid.

    You people dont understand there is No better free agents, and this 60 mil money would of have been spent anyway by Tilman because there is minimum spending treshhold. So they just threw a bag at best players available on short term contracts

    Ok, let's stay positive for a second. Assuming the S&T for Brooks makes it possible for us to go out and get a defensive-minded center like Jarrett Allen, that significantly improves the team defense. If you can instill some heart and pride into the young guys, and get them to pay attention to detail on the defensive end, we might see a pretty drastic increase in wins. And if you have Brooks bought into the system with an understanding that he will get his ass benched the second he goes off the reservation, the offense will gain significant organization and structure with a real PG. 35-40 wins would very much be a real possibility IMO.
