    I think 2-3 is enough but all teams should play equal I guess.

    If you’re looking at the Spurs, you’re not looking upward.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I was wondering why you put Blazers news in "Around the NBA," but then I realized you forgot you weren't on LakersGround.

    I'd rather have him than at least 3 players on the roster

    I'm guessing that is not the last excuse we will see for Simmons not playing in a game this season.

    I suspect you are right. He is reconditioned now. I suspect he will be remanicured, repedicured and reothered things as he awaits trade.

    I would also welcome Wenyen back...



    [Edit: apparently it's one of those deals where they "waive" them with the intention of signing them to their G-League teams? I don't imagine that applies to Dante Exum, though.]

    Yeh, but once they waive them, can't anyone sign them, re4gardless of what Milwaukee wants? I don't see that they are signing him to a two way contract. We sure should, we have one open.

    There’s a reason Wenyen Gabriel can’t stick with a team. No thanks!

    Very very low BBIQ or just low IQ? Doesn't matter really. Teams seem to see it and they let him go.
