    Normally I don't look at notes while recording but I didn't have a ton of time and I record with my phone so I did this without editing stuff out.

    Thanks man! It's fun and I'm hoping it at least builds speaking skills I can use later in life.

    Really? A couple role players (and a pick of TBD value) for one of the best point guards in the league...not even close, on paper or in reality.

    Nonsense. Some, but not most. Especially as Sonic GM, he made surprising finds.

    They are a good team. Them and Kings are good. Warriors trash.

    Cedi Osman looks good, maybe a Wally Szczerbiak type.

    I like Zach Collins a lot but I would have sent him and other pieces for Blake Griffin if I could. And that's coming from someone who isn't even a big fan of Blake but he'd make our team so much more deadly with the 3 guys we already have.

    There's a saying in the NBA, if you can get a star without giving up one, do it.

    Yeah I wanted him too, but I also agree that giving up our pick was not a good idea.

    I suspect that this will be a post that gets bumped three years from now.

    I loved the idea of blake Griffin until I remembered just how injury prone he is and the fact he is signed for 4 more seasons after this at 132m, 31m, 34m, 37m, 39m is his cap hit. Blake doesnt' make our team better then Houston/GSW this year and if you think we are fucked capwise now we would be worse with Griffin whos body already shows signs of breaking down. Griffins contract could easily turn into Roys but much much worse and without the medical retirement break.

    Hopefully not because Zach Collins is playing for the Canton Charge and Blake Griffin is going to ECFs lol

    Griffin has played in 219 games of a possibly 376, 160 games missed or he has played in 58.5% of games the last 5 years. If he does make it to the ECF statistically he will only be able to play in 4 of the 7 games if it goes to 7.
