Good ole former insider Woelfel adding to the conspiracy theories and King mentioned Chicago sports radio was discussing star players leaving small markets,aka... AD. Giannis name was brought up.

I agree, I feel the same as you do, we should be able to sign to at least one more contract if we are contending.

You cant say the Pelicans arent competing without AD. They made it a game last night.

Why did you all drop Manimal? I loved him in Denver, then sort of forgot he existed. When we signed him I read he was on your squad but riding the pine and I just assumed he lost his athleticism (his biggest trait) with age. Seeing him in Houston the guy still has his springs/energy/hustle. Great pickup.

Just a bad fit in our system.

Couldn’t defend and couldn’t shoot, on top of the fact he got in some legal trouble prior to the season. Then it came out in the last few weeks that he wasn’t “all in” with the team and was basically distancing himself from the team so Marks decided to let him go before it became an issue.

He’s definitely a perfect fit for you guys since D’Antoni loves those high energy/hustle guys in his system.

Westbrook is the absolute WORST when it comes to off ball defense. He literally doesn't watch his man at all

Faried is like Thompson was for the Cavs.. he’s great if you are in major need of a high energy player like that, but if not he’s borderline worthless.
