I am surprised, but the coach has wisely decided that if you have a lighting quick PG, who's strength is his speed, then they'll run a lightening quick offence that really pushes the pace.

I'm still holding out hope the Sixers eventually do a Courtney Lee trade- Bayless ($8.6mil) plus Korkmaz ($1.7mil, and they've just declined his option for next year) matches the salary and they literally have too many second rounders to use over the next few years, so they can afford to cough up one or two.

last year I was wondering what was going on with Fox and if he was going to be another Kings disappointment, but that was based mostly off of boxes cores (not watching games)

He (and even Hield) seem to be getting it done this year.

I tend to be a big picture guy. Would be nice to move Lee, but at the same time, i can't help wondering if any teams interested in Lee wouldn't be interested in Kyle Korver first.

You must then hope for a JJ Reddick injury.

He makes $5m a less a season. That's $10m over their respective remaining 2 years.

That isn't insignificant.

He's a better 3 pt shooter, and off the bench, that's what they need.

Good point. Maybe we just ride it out with CLee one season at a time?
On the other hand maybe with Durant (Pipe dream) and our franchise changing rookie of the year pick from this summer with the emergence of Knox AND a healthy Allstar return to form KP Cllee brings quality role on or off the bench!!!

The one thing with Korver: dude is 37 going on 38 THIS season. His legs will go any minute now.

And Lee still has some D in his game. I actually think his biggest weakness is he's too unselfish and he doesn't drive to the hoop enough

Brooks might be gone tomorrow. They paid way too much for Porter. Wall's money has them buried. They need two Blake trades. Imagine being that dysfunctional and then adding D12 to the mix.

Beal and Wall - 13 assists/12 turnovers. Ouch.

Wall is Melo. Stats and words. Talent is evident but not refined. Ego gets in the way.

And then there is their "defense".

chemistry is their problem. There was an ounce (pound?) of truth last year when Gortat when he said they played better as a team when Wall was out. Well Gortat is gone and he's replaced with Howard who has his own chemical reactions

this is on the GM, not Brooks
