    Hmm, it's as if Chauncey also noticed that our offense was based on CJ and Dame bailing us out from lack of movement. Weird.

    Sure, but why the hell is CJ there? This would seem to cement the statement from Nurk that Neil isn't going to trade anyone.

    It's definitely a good thing that they aren't saying anything about Dame's opinions or what Dame's purported stance is on anything.

    To support the new coach of the team he's currently on? What kind of dumbass question is this? I want CJ traded as much as anyone but he's still ON THE TEAM. Do you want Neil to come out and say he's trying to trade CJ and Nurk? Would that make you feel better? Do you really think that puts the organization in the best position to actually make a deal? Christ.

    Dude come on..... the one major chip we have to trade this year is CJ and they trot him out as the face of the team in this critical press conference? Calm the fuck down.

    Neil says just because a team has stars doesn't mean you'll win a championship... this is true.

    What's also true, very few teams win championships without multiple stars.

    So Neil could put together a roster of multiple stars that don't win a championship, but he's going to have a hard time putting together a championship with only one star.

    LMAO, Neil's answer on the roster this presser is a complete 180 of his answer on the roster in the last presser.

    "It's on me to upgrade the roster to make Dame happy."

    Basically confirms my suspicion that Dame was unhappy because he thought Neil wasn't going to try to upgrade the roster.

    They didn't trot him out. CJ chose to be there. Do you really think it wasn't CJ's decision?

    Good god.

    "I'm not going to answer that Jason" should be marked. It wasn't Neil who said it, but she said it so Neil didn't have to.
