He's was surprisingly decent and not a tool when he was here, but he has a history of saying and doing stupid shit.
Let's also not forget that this guy turned down a huge bag to stay in LAL before he ended up here. You don't get to have it both ways. Now, I completely agree that they're always in the right to go and get their bag, it's a business. But you're a backup PG with 103 million dollars in career earnings....and I say this with all respect...but shut the fuck up and dribble bro.
That is a totally unconsequential turnover in the 2nd fucking quarter of a tied game. I would almost guarantee that there will be a better situation to use it later.
- There's growing noise that Kevin Durant could be traded before the deadline. Honestly wouldn't be shocked to see a reunion in GSW. Houston called about Durant during the summer. Dallas has also been mentioned.
- Houston is also interested in Booker and he might also be available
- Nurkic to Washington to Valanciunas is allegedly close
- Middleton to Washington for Kuzma is also allegedly close
- Looks like someone asked Philly to sit KJ Martin tonight because a trade is close
- Lonzo Ball has drawn interest from Memphis, Minnesota, and the Pistons.
No one ever claimed Jake was a stud. Just a decent, functioning starter level big. Don't look at me, I wanted us to sign Jarret Allen when he was a free agent, we spent the money on a Gary Trent extension instead.
Jake will do in absence of someone legitimately good though.
I love Scottie, but I don't see a 3 pt shot off of the dribble ever being a thing for him. If we can get him up to being an average corner 3 shooter to help with spacing, I'm good with that.
