    Please don't offer Nurk more than 10 million per next season.

    We literally have a player on our roster now named Winslow... I guess our FO has a sense of humor and at least wanted an accurate representation of how the rest of our foreseeable future will go.

    Hurd teaching Calabro basketball slang that's at least a decade old. I get it that he's old but how does he not pick this shit up... it's his job.

    Should've sold high on Ant, but I guess we are trying to be bad.

    Also.... Ant should be straight dominating this game. He's been mostly invisible.

    We are going to go winless in February. Possibly 0-4 to start March, which would give us a 16 game losing streak going back to the Bulls game on Jan. 30th. This could get rough.

    Nurk and his flip shots are so annoying.

    Yeah. He should look like he doesn't belong on the court with these guys. He looks like he fits right in.

    He’s definitely a trade asset in a package for the right player.

    We need to get Johnny Davis in the draft to be the SG. Legit 6'5". Dropped 25 on Michigan State tonight.

    Dude might get paid $20 mil per for one month of good play.

    I mean, if he's this inconsistent the rest of the season they'll be major regret not selling high on him.

    I really want him to succeed though. For our team. He could be such an important cog.

    I wonder if the rest of this season is going to be something of an audition for Nurk and Ant. I could see a scenario where the organization -- if it's trying to win -- watches how they perform and decides they really aren't worth the money to try to re-sign. I'll be honest, even though the common thinking is we cleared up money to keep Ant, we really don't have to be committed to him.
