    Totally agree.. I don’t even think Roco gets minutes anymore. So that made sense but why they hell did we dump Powell is beyond me.. atleast use him off the bench as a super 6th man

    No I just wanted decent value for him. I don't care if we kept him.

    And this is why we're ranked dead last as a front office.

    Someone linked some subjective shit. Who knows if we're actually last, but we're definitely not good.

    How was he not straight with them. This is a long talked about issue. He told them point blank over the course of a year he wanted to play in Texas.

    Just an awful front office. Sad thing is, we probably haven’t even seen the worst of it.

    He talked out of both sides of his mouth publicly which is why.

    I don't care, though. I thought he was gonna stay and he didn't. I never lost sleep over it.

    Ah. So people like @BigGameDamian and other fans who give up and predict the worst for everything got brainwashed. It's funny when people don't think for themselves.

    Mikal Bridges just dropped 45-8-5 against Jimmy Butler.

    Like our management could even go out and get someone like that anyway. We’d have to give up some young players that haven’t been developed yet.
