    Hey! I got an idea!
    Maybe they could get a serviceable backup center in the buyout market and play Drew a little at PF?
    That might solve some of the size problems?
    I'm a genius at this stuff? Wonder why nobody else has thought of it?
    I wonder if there is a player they could waive or something that would give them room on the roster?
    I wish I had a direct line to Joe Cronin because I'm sure he needs to hear this idea. Anyone on this site that might be able to get him a message to give me a call?
    After I tell him MY idea I'm certain he will keep my number for every future decisions he will need advice on.
    Thanks in advance for giving me this opportunity. Might be my big break!

    Hey! I already thought of that. Management probably thought of it also, but it would have messed with their tanking plans.

    Watford double double watch will be a major team narrative moving forward through flexibility and cap space. In essence... bring on the tank

    Nurk, yes. Grant is a poor rebounder for his position, so we'll actually get worse when he comes back.

    Nurk would fix this if only he could stop pouting/giving 50%

    Reddish is averaging 1.6 rebounds a game and Grant is averaging 4.3 a game. Not sure how Grant replacing Reddish makes us worse rebounding.

    You know i watched last night when Simons got injured. Not only did Nurk go out on the court to get him. After he was off the court he actually carried Ant all by himself cradled in his arms back to the locker room. He's a solid man. He has good games and bad. I think he is almost lets too much emotion get to him.
    I found a new look I have about Nurk watching him last night.

    Except that it means the guy who was replacing him is now a better rebounder off the bench.
