    We can't afford to pay Napier, and he deserves a bigger role than we could ever give him. I don't want to trade him unless it's for the right package/pick.

    Ex., I'd hope NYK would want him for their pick. Ntilikina won't be ready for a while and when he is, he and Napier can play together because Ntilikina is 6'5 with a ~7ft wingspan or something like that.

    That would give us apx. the 14th & 15th picks, which could be used to trade up to #8 or so. That lands is a real potential difference maker.

    Napier a starting PG and won't get the opportunity here. I'd be happy for him to get the chance to start for a full season.

    I loved it too! Refs could have easily called a foul on him at any point and taken it all away, but glad they didn't.

    The 4th quarter was fun. But it was still garbage basketball on offense. There were 13 possessions where a shot was taken without a single pass in the 4th quarter alone! That's more than half our possessions played without any ball movement.

    Shabazz got Nurk the ball in the paint...first half CJ was giving it to Nurk 20 ft out....big difference in his effectiveness

    It’s gonna suck when we trade Napier, but we gotta do it.

    I'm still doing the sober thing for a while. I'm like Jack Kerouac without the fun, travel, adventures, art, women, etc.
