    I think the request happened on Monday. He met with the team with his agent.

    Hopefully, Chody sells the team is the next move.

    Scoot lives and breathes basketball.
    His favorite book lately is "The Four Agreements."

    I think Nurk will do great with Scoot. Nurk does great when the ball is moving around. He'll love throwing passes to people who aren't standing in place.

    Not a liar. He simply couldn’t get anything done.

    Time to sell the team. New Management. Just too bad the new management isn’t making the Dame trade

    where did you hear that about Shaedon? everything I've gleaned is the exact opposite.

    the only noise we heard about along those lines was about Keon.

    It's been reported by a few places that he didn't ask for a trade until last night.

    So we might have a Rod Strickland/Ardvydas Sabonis situation? (obviously not as experienced or skilled but)

    I mean yeah, I know... but I mean like you have a pass-first guard (lol finally) and a soft-handed finesse center with an okay 3pt shot. I remember those days being a lot of fun to watch.

    Well hopefully, this new team will be exciting to watch because the win/loss column won't be.

    I'll be honest, one of my favorite seasons was Joel Przybilla's first season with us. I'm a weirdo.

    Extremely small but extremely fast, will be a lot of fun! Scoot would have two great options to pass to on the break: Ant for a three or Sharpe for a dunk.

    I expect we'll make more moves in February, but until then, everyone gets to audition and get to know each other in the new paradigm.

    We need a young forward. Someone who fits the window with Scoot/Sharpe.

    I stand corrected. I thought he offered over market. It seems I was wrong. Well Phil needs to nut up and pay.
