Brandon Rush signed to 10 day contract

[Strenuus]

I called it years ago on shabazz from minny... He nevet looked good, didnt see what others saw.

On 2K, I scouted the G League and stumbled upon Tyler Lydon, power forward who can shoot the three. I traded for him and then called him up from G League. He's doing great averaging 17 ppg.

Dude, Lydon is a member of the Nuggets who was drafted 24th this past draft. He is out for the season with a knee injury. This isn't 2k.

How hurt is Harkless? Maybe they keep Rush now

I think you just made @KingSpeed's head explode.

Which is what would have happened to @Mediocre Man if we'd drafted Lydon (big, white, American born from Syracuse).

He's horrible. He's like the Meyers of guards. No defense or any valuable skill. But instead of a big man who can only shoot slow ass 3s, he's a guard who can only shoot hook shots.

He is not a good fit for us because he can't shoot 3's. (although one year he shot 39%) But horrible might be a stretch. The Bucks obviously like him. He is a 6'6" wing who shot over 50% from 2pt range for 3 straight years.

Lydon was the player I would have been the most pissed off about drafting. The Nuggets are fucking stupid for trading Donovan Mitchell for Lyles and Lydon.

So, are there any other unsigned guys out there who would be of any value and would accept the Vet's Min. for the rest of the season? If not, will NO give one of our G-League guys a contract so that they'd be available for the playoffs?

Yup. And they had Jokic, Plumlee, and Faried in the frontcourt already, with Millsap coming in later. Imagine a 3 guard lineup of Murray, Mitchell, and Harris... Damn that's legit.

But they could've traded (I think IND wouldve taken this instead, Murray has a lot of value) Murray, Faried, Mudiay, Arthur, and picks for PG and Joseph and still signed Millsap.

Mitchell / Joseph
Harris / Barton
George / Chandler
Millsap / Hernangomez
Jokic / Plumlee

That team is scary good. Denver fucked up.

NBA rumors: When will Knicks buy out Joakim Noah?

Living up to expectations. More games played than stats

Brandon, we hardly knew ye

Stay thirsty, my friend

I never did see what the Rush was anyway

Rush was probably signed to give Blazers a bit more time to see if anyone valuable was bought out.

Since no one has, I'm guessing one of the 2ways get converted

Well if they traded a pick you'd have to assume it was the #13 pick so they wouldn't have Mitchell.

2019 and 2021 1sts. Keep Mitchell. It's enough ti get that trade done imo.

I doubt they would have offered two future 1sts and Murray for one year of George. Considering they gave away pick 13 anyway, they definitely would have just offered that instead.

On a side note, despite how good Oladipo has been I still don't like the strategy by the Pacers to not get picks and stay good enough to not get a lottery pick themselves.
