    There were some available but I think Joe isn't focusing on this year.

    Could be if he can beat out Little. I don't see Sharp starting unless there are injuries. He will get more minutes however.

    Grant, Reddish, Little, Simons, Sharpe, Thybulle, pretty athletic dudes. Throw in DAME, Nurk, Winslow, Johnson, Eubanks, Whatford, JaWa and eventually Ibou who is green but very promising, who knows? At least through rest of year.

    I don't mind that, but why didn't we want Bey? I don't even understand why the Pistons didn't want Bey - he was part of their core a minute ago. And isn't Jalen Duren enough project seven-footers for one team?

    Wouldn't it be nice to be a fan of a team like the Suns where you get to have unreasonable expectations.

    He barely played for a few reasons. But being shitty player likely isn’t one of them. Golden State hasn’t needed rookies to perform in years. If Wiseman gets drafted by the Hornets I guarantee you he plays a ton and has many games with the numbers that people expect. Kerr doesn’t like playing rookies and hasn’t needed to. Kuminga is almost in the same boat. I’m not saying Wiseman is an all star. I’m saying there’s no way to know.

    And it only took them a decade of being the worst team in the League for that to happen.

    And yet, in all that time, they never had cause to envy us.

    I love how, now he's a Laker, Mo Bamba is suddenly a real force and not an obvious bust who's gotten worse every year he's been in the league.

    "Terrence Ross is a potential buyout candidate after he was not traded at the deadline by the Orlando Magic, sources tell Michael Scotto of Hoopshype."

    Bring the Jefferson High legend home!

    If I flipped teams based on my lack of understanding basic expectations, then yes. Otherwise, nothing to complain about unless it's your fault. Learn realistic expectations and you'll be fine.

    We just traded two guys for picks and guys we hope turn out like Hart/GP. I would not expect we sign anyone that will helpbus immediately.

    I will say this: this summer, for the fan base, they gotta be aggressive. I'll be fine if they don't because shit happens and I'll recalibrate as things change, but for the general fanbase they better do something.

    Now, a question: what kind of money will we have this summer? That's the key.
