    Hope he recovers fully.

    Think this removes any interest I have of CJ package for Ben in a trade. I cant handle this franchise having another cornerstone with knee concerns.

    Wouldn’t want Simmons, at all. If CJ goes the guy coming in better be able to stroke it too, guys who can’t shoot dont interest me in today’s nba.

    so his career is over right?

    a body being removed must be a near death experience. How does one recover?

    So we trade Ariza to the Spurs, but still get to have him on our bench? Good deal

    My bad!

    let me revise: WIN IT 2020-2021

    CJ + Ariza + Collins

    for

    De Rozen + Aldridge + SA’s #1 pick in the draft

    we’ll be good with Melo, Hood and Little and De Rozen and Trent can swing to the 3 at times

    When I think of Popovich, then think of Popovich-type players, about the last player that fits the bill is CJ
