. Thankfully there’s not much pressure to slide into the 8 seed and then bring guys back and just take care of business in the playoffs like we are capable of.

I don't think it's going to be a cakewalk getting into the playoffs.

I'm no Olshey fan, but boy am I glad we don't have the front offices of Detroit or Minnesota. Minny just gave up their only good defender (and a +/- star) Covington and picked up +/- horrowshow D-Lo. I guess they did offload Wiggins, at least.

Their losses will be more interesting to watch.

So the goal this year is not to win but save money. Poor Dame

Neil basically said the mandate was to get under the tax without giving up real assets.

Still can't get over the fact that the Blazers had to pay Atlanta to take Skal. Seriously had to give them 2 million dollars to take him off our hands.

I really don't believe Olshey about Zach I fill he be coming back next month sometimes. If Zach don't come then organization has said shut him down. But if healthy and he gets shut down then we got problem with our GM.

This might have been addressed already, but wasn't D'Angelo Russel one of the guys who said they wanted to play together, and the other being KAT and Devon Booker?

right after his surgery, on Nov 5, they said he's be re-evaluated in a month. So that's due in the 1st week of March. If that re-evaluation is positive, he's probably get cleared for certain type of activity but he'd still be quite a ways from playing. And there is a higher chance of re-injury for shoulder injuries than many other injuries. Caution is almost mandatory

in other words, it may very well be the case that he might not play till late in March at the earliest
