    “Followed by Damian Lillard”

    btw I’ve always liked mclemore. Always thought there was more to his game, but he’s a solid shooter.

    I'd keep Simons and Little in front of him but I'm starting to feel Neil is getting ready to thin the roster at the wing...

    Hope we get to keep Little.

    This man is fine, as long as it's for the minimum and there's no guaranteed role. He's a sub-10 PER for lifer.

    37% from three on 5 attempts per….

    Ugly advanced stats - Luke Babbit-esque.

    He's not a rotational player. I hope he's the DJ replacement as the 10th man when we trade DJ and pick(s) for someone talented.

    Or maybe it's a favor to Klutch.

    im getting a sinking feeling that this might be the minimum and Zeller was for the TPMLE

    Not enough 6'3" guards on the team.

    Ben McLemore had a decent year with the Rockets, but is an inconsistent shooter. But he has size and can potentially be a quality role player.
