    Oh, I agree. I can just see the organization, which is very controlling, having an issue with him hanging out with a fired employee, when that employees successor is drawing poor reviews from a lot of fans.

    Can they please fire Calabro and hire Barrett back so I can start watching the games again?

    On the other hand, i'd be curious to see if Wheels ratings improved after the change.

    Cleveland signed with the warriors. Guess he wasn't good enough for an invite from the Blazers.

    I'm starting to get pissed.

    Maybe he decided he'd rather play for the champs?

    Yeah he would've been a fine add on a two-way deal. Good athlete w/ quick feet and instincts defensively. If he can be a reasonable spot-up shooter, he has a chance to be a contributor down the line.

    Neil has talked about not having a direct G-League affiliate makes those contracts less appealing for the organization though. Add that to giving up ownership of the Idaho Stampede to the Jazz and Neil's comments on Layman's time down there last year and it seems that they don't really value the G-League much at all.

    Still hoping Dozier makes it out of LA w/o a contract and we can pick him up.

    Garrett Temple wouldn't be bad vet replacement for Crabbe. I'd prefer to him Lee, especially when consider their contracts.

    Not sure Sac is willing to dump him, although with Carter, Randolph and Hill around as mentors I think it makes it more likely.

    That right there seems like a Canzano level stretch at generating some controversy when none is warranted.
