you have (or had) a colostomy bag, no?

(not being a dick and I’ll happily remove this post if I’m incorrect and/or you don’t care to share - but you don’t want people knowing your medical shit, right? I know I don’t for many reasons.)

Had one for 3 months in 2010. I’m not a private person at all, I’m an open book. If anybody has a question I’ll tell them.

Maybe I should get a twitter so I can be like Dean Marang.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Why didn't we offer this same deal to Kyle Anderson?

We only had 6 SG, needed one more.

I’m not trying to out you or anything. I’m just saying we should leave people’s health shit aside, even if they’re attention hoes. I dunno who Dean Marang and I don’t care if people put they shit out there, but we should pay it no mind, or at least not talk shit about it (even if I don’t disagree with your overall point).

I’ll take that into consideration.

I love the signing

Could've signed him for about the minimum last year and saved $25 million. Hope it's not buying high.

But I like the D. Positionally makes zero sense unless there's one or two other moves.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I appreciate that.

What is going on??? GP2? No nurk? Simons is signed at least.

 

[DDolla]

GP 2 is back

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Also this is an over pay not a huge overpay cause i could see him getting 5 to 6 per but the Blazers needed to out bid the warriors but still an over pay.

 

[Tince]

There needs to be a couple more moves from Cronin & Co. We can't try this ultra small ball again. One guy over 6'9" on the roster (if we sign Nurk) who is also injury prone is just asking for trouble.

An overpay for a guard.
Do we even have a starting center or a backup center?

Maybe Nurk not signed yet, maybe he's part of a three way Portland, Phoenix, Brooklyn:

Wha... Wha... Huh... Wha... What?

Yeah so instead of only having one big, we'd only have one big.

 

[Strenuus]

Honestly I just want the nurk question answered ffs.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Payton will bolt to Portland.

Money talks

 

[riverman]

We now have two point of attack defenders to pair with either Dame or Ant...we've sucked at creating turnovers so this is a good signing ..we've got guys who can run teams out of the gym now..Hart, Nas and Sharpe can all play the 3

C'mon get real. Like the Nets are gonna take on that many dudes. They want draft picks.

They actually are asking for two all stars. Lol

Losing all our flexibility to overpay GP2 is a really tough pill to swallow.

the way out of this mess is to have chauncey magically find a rotation that works and for someone like Nas to pop.

I'm surprised we didn't go after TJ Warren...but then again maybe he had no interest in us anyways so we had to go with GPII.

I think Joe is setting up for a potential trade. Other than signing our own assets, i didn't think we would be signing anyone. Payton is a nice addition.

 

[STOMP]

Liability on D? Where’d you get that from? He was a great defender, even when he played for us.

You do know we're talking Steve Kerr right? If so, please explain how one of the greatest deep threats in the history of the game who was (IYO) a "great defender" made the vet's minimum for most of his 15 year career. Over the course of that long professional career, he started a total of 30 games. He had the 3 but not the D.

there’s nothing about Warren that says Billups, and he also really hasn’t played in two years.

 

[Natebishop3]

That’s a lot of money for a dude who never plays.

They have to do that. It's exactly what the Sixers did with Embiid and iirc, he was out longer than Zion was.

It just sucks because he hasn’t earned that money.

 

[illmatic99]

Is it possible they squeeze Nurk here to keep more room below the apron? No team is going to hard cap themselves for Nurk. His market can't be above the Tax MLE at this point, and the teams with capspace won't bother.

It would definitely sour on the relationship, but what can we do? If we can get him to a contract around 10-12 mil, then we would have more flexibility to make trades around the deadline.
