    Kenny Lofton Jr is not coming over from the Shanghai Sharks to ride the bench - Sengun will sit.

    I agree with most of what you said but KD is a cancer. He has to go. If I ever see another KD ISO that turns into a turnover with him in a Rockets uniform I think I will puke..

    In getting KD we lost not only Dillon but the No. 10 draft pick. We could've had Coward, who made the all-rookie team, or Queen, who was all-rookie second team.

    If KD wants to go then trade him.

    We should do due diligence on it anyways. He paid great except way too many turnovers and texts.

    And that killed the rest of our season are m after the injuries.

    Bari did improve, yes.

    At the cost of now paying him $20 minimum. For what? 36% 3 point shots? Throwing the ball up for grabs like Marc Wilson when the pressure hits him.

    He is a role player. Being paid over $20 million. Is he was doing this on a rookie deal.... OK.


    But that's over with.

    And exact thing with Tari. We're fixing to pay him big when he a role player.

    Just.... no!

    We had Tate on the roster all season......

    Lofton isn't a significant upgrade to that???????? You know he is.

    Uncle Jeff? Naw man. Sign Skal.

    Draft Karaban. Hard worker. Can shoot the lights out.

    I'm not sold or unsold on Reed. He's still a rookie.

    Pay Amen $25 million. He's a dawg. Shows up and grinds. There value there.

    Find big guys that can defend Wemby, eh?!?!? That IS STUPID!

    NO!

    Find guys that make Wemby have to work his tail off defensively. Alpi is one. Go get Lofton. And go right at Wemby. Iso him down to underneath the rim. Wad him up and throw him in the basket.

    That's directly opposite to the stupid post about using up assets and cap space on big huge guys to defend wemby. That is plain wrong! And a recipe for a decade of frustration.

    Get the shooters the give Alpi maximum space and let Alpi chop Wemby to pieces under the rim.

    I'm not saying give bari away for nothing. But I am advocating turning him into one or 2 nice role players at other positions at reasonable salaries that end next season along with future draft capital that give us the option of operating with big cap space.

    Just keep moving the ball of assets down the road when we can actually build out a super team by signing a great free agent and then getting a great lottery pick to play with on a rookie deal ...

    Bari gets hurt next season...... we're hit and sunk on that contract.

    Ask your preferred mechanic. You have a front one and a rear one.
