Hell no he should be playing off the bench for a contender like he is right now. He was a killer tonight

I’d rather have Gary. Not that I like Gary but I feel like you can get Gary on a two year with a team option deal for cheaper and people on the team seem to like him. He also hit the bench without complaining. Buddy doesn’t hit the pine quietly and is somehow worse than Gary on defence. Plus he’s like 35 years old isn’t he?
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

We need a SF.

Prefer not to bring him back assuming we are able to use the money he'd get elsewhere to fill a more important need (backup PG, C or 3 and 3 Wing). Dick should be able to provide what Trent does tbh.

Is Oubre a free agent? Because if you want an old experienced wing I’m not sure how you were more impressed with Hield after that series lol

Crazy how a guy like him goes unsigned all summer and now Nurse plays him 40 minutes in key playoff games.

We actually need less one dimensional guys. Our championship team had a bunch of 2 way players. Our current team has too many guys allergic to defense lol.

No to Buddy and no to GTJ.

Raps have Gradey that can do what they do and more at half the cost.

Well, I don't really trust the history of signing "shooters" as free agents. We've burned through a few that were..... less than ideal.

I don't want Masai spending any new money this off-season except re-signing IQ signing our draft picks, maybe picking up some undrafted players with potential, and that's it. No free agents or vets. Also need to get rid of Trent Jr and releasing Brown.

We need to tank next year too. This team needs to stink it up worse than this season.
