    He chickened out before the Playoffs, I know he had his reasons yet playoff numbers would have more relevance.

    You were not here then AFAIR but in September I was begging for Turner lol. Didn't expect it to cost RoCo.

    chickened out?

    He stayed out of the bubble to save his parental rights.

    That's disgusting man.

    Who is this BenNinetyfour, that's high expectations toward Roco.

    Roco was pedestrian as a Timberwolf last year.

    Lol. Mang, I didn't mean this.
    Way to put dirt on me.

    I said it was a bad situation surely but it showed he didn't solve this situation with his ex the best way, namely way before the season started.

    Also his kid is 12, 13ish not like it is an infant that needs attention around the clock.

    Let's be realistic. I am a dad myself.

    He did leave the Rockets the first time because he was money chasing in Phoenix, not that it's wrong but that tells the public he is a glorified journey man and nothing more.

    Any 1st in next years draft is great. That draft is supposed to be loaded.

    Yeah he is too smart to not know the shitstorm it would cause.

    I never got over that fact.

    I really hope we end up having an opportunity to draft Devin Vassell. He has some prime talent that was somewhat subdued by Leonard's system at FSU.

    If we manage to net another pick later in the first round, I wouldn't mind taking a "MPJ like" shot at a guy like Jaden McDaniels. He and his team underwhelmed immensely at UW but he has prime time talent to be a star... only 19 years old so he needs to get his sh** together between his ears.

    Have you never had a ex?

    How do you know if there was a way to solve the situation with his ex or before the season.

    The other poster was right to call you out since you don't really have clue about his situation.

    No problem, I used the word wrongly but I did research the incident.

    No need to jump to judgment on that.

    His ex accused him of domestic violence, slapping the kid.

    While I think he is innocent, in times of Covid things get heated and it clearly showed there is a reason Ariza and his ex are on bad terms.

    He also started another family with the woman he is with now, whom he married in Houston, that probably didn't help with his custody while his ex was taking care of his oldest son.

    Just saying he is no saint.

    No, I didn't have exes that I share custody with. Thx.

    Sorry for coming on that strong but I hate sideline judging.

    My bad.

    Russ has the worst contract in the nba. It’s so bad that that even the Knicks are hesitant

    Based on this, then we should tank this year and try to finish last. Guarantees we don't lose our pick and removes that part from WB/CP3 swap. Will suck, but allows us to jump on he rebuild faster.
