He was only in Cali for a year and Cali is a dumpster fire now. I think he considers woke educated places his home. So I think he's a good fit in Boston, but could also be a good fit in a place like NYC. Thought he said not too long ago he wants to put ATL back on the map. I guess between Emory and Georgia Tech he has enough places to act smart and educated but I don't think he wants to do it for like 80million less.

Hopefully this Bruno works out for us. We had Sundov, then Fernando, and now Cabacolo.

at the time he was drafted he was compared to Durant. So it looks like we're getting a Great Value brand Durant!

I liked Vonleh at IU prior to the draft -- since then, I haven't been a fan. Reminds me of a slower Mickey Jordan.

Looking at these two players Brad brought in for training camp invites (Caboclo and Vonleh), it looks like he targeted tweeners who can play a little at SF, PF, and C.

I think when you look at some of the free agents left they must want more money than they can get overseas or are willing to rest their bodies and only play half a season.

I also think we might be able to trade from our depth (Pritchard?) for a significantly better player and solve our problems that way.

I'm totally ok going in to the season with this roster. we can always grab a vet big off the cut pile in the spring.

If the Nets got an offer of something like Jaylen, D White, Grant Williams, and picks for Durant they'd be completely and totally insane not to take it at this point. If they could also get Pritchard and JD they'd have a perfect excuse to not sign Kyrie.
You put that with Simmons, sit back, and say "phew."
Makes me think Stevens is holding pat. I think Stevens is setting up to embarrass the Nets and Durant. Every day that Durant gets more angry it makes the Nets worse and lowers offers for him.
