    Wood has been dumped by three teams in three years. That's not a good sign at all.

    Nas Little's. And this is assuming Ant is traded. He guarded SFs fine in Denver.

    Best player available that can play 3, 4, or 5.

    I would prefer to see both Ant and Nurkic traded ... but at least Ant for his value in a package to return a SF of quality.
    In 30 days after signing his contract, Scoot is available ... unlikely and infrequently traded (#3), but I do not discount the possibility.

    I'd prefer Plumlee over Wood but Plumlee is on his 6th team

    The thing about Cam is that his QO was like 7.7M and I don't think he's playing above a min salary level right now. His upside is nice and all but it's not really showing.

    How long do we have to decide if we are picking up Knox's team option?

    Interesting that we are waiting until the last second to decide. It is pretty cheap.

    You trade for one of them or both and then if you only get one of them in a trade you spend the TPMLE on the other... or and just hear me out on this one, Joe doesn't land anyone that meets Dame's standards and... you guessed it we're back to the Dame drama.

    I want Joe to pull off a big trade for an impact player using Ant and even possibly Nurk and likely one or more of the future firsts we could free up by trading a second or two to the Bulls along with guaranteeing our pick to them in this upcoming draft (a year from now). Get a legit impact player to play starting forward, starting C or get two players one to start at forward and the other at C. Joe has said he wants to do a lot of things, he has said he wants to push all our chips in a few times now and the dude hasn't gotten it done. Let's hope this is the first of many times he does.

    Let's hope OG's new agents at CAA can get him out of Toronto to Portland.

    One would think it would be good value and something we could easily use for trade if we did not want to keep him. We do have more than one player like him under contract already though.

    Do we have a starting SF? I'm literally watching the coverage on the Nuggets say they were making mistakes drafting big guys who can swing down, when the better idea for defensive versatility is guards who can swing up. ie Bruce Brown and KCP.

    Last I checked, we didn't have a starting level SF. He is the best option far and away.

    Honestly, that is Miami's secret weapon too. Also, why PJ Tucker has stuck around so long.

    This reminds me just how ridiculous it was having Blevins on the roster.

    Blevins sounds like a dirty sex act that Sly gets paid for.

    (or maybe does for free - I don’t judge.)
