    I think I’m finally fed up with this dude’s whole shtick and his agent who defends him daily as well.

    Oh hell yeah. Josh Hart is a keeper.

    The idea would be to consolidate all of the talent that we've acquired in perimeter players to buoy up our lack of size in the front court after Nurk. Even Grant is a smallish PF. So we need effective size in the front court that does different things than Nurk does. The guy we get needs to move quicker and probably stretch the floor on offense. Right now on the perimeter we have Dame, Ant, will have GP2, Hart, Sharpe, Justise and Nas. I realize some of those guys can play small ball 4 but none of them are going to be effective as a small ball 5 and Grant isn't either. We need a guy who has size and mobility to backup Nurk and hopefully who has the versatility to backup Grant. I don't know who I'd give up and I think the FO is watching now to see who works the best together and will know closer to the new year who they will shop to add effective size with skills that complement what we have and make up for what we lack.

    Obviously if we end up trading more than one player for another then we will just pick players up who are GLeaguers or more likely off of the buyout market.

    Use the ignore button. It is there for a reason...

    Some people are not worth wasting time on. At this point, if you are still wasting your time on him, frankly, that's on you... The only nonsense I hear related to him is from people that get upset about it.
