Wrong again dumbass. There is no way they would do that as Culver was a panic move that we are trying to trade because he sucks. He's gone as soon as we can move him...because he sucks.

Nice hire Rosas. What a joke. Clearly wanted Red Auerbach but had to settle for a fallback guy.

Yep, clearly they're trying to dump Culver any way possible. Because everyone knows Rosas fucked up.

Rosas is nothing more than a star hunter for his coaching staff too.

Not sure how to take this comment. Am I a dumbass because both humans were at the same college last season? Leave out the first sentence, and you have a nice piece of snarky sarcasm. But, you didn't, so you don't.

Impossible job? Really. He needed to get us defensive front court depth in a draft loaded with it and try to solidify the PG spot. He sure made it look impossible when he used 1st and 2nd round picks plus last year's starting 4 and turned it into 2 more 2 guards. Oh, and doing that lead him to cut Cam who was a great find on a cheap deal. Tell me how that's not a failure. And did he get Russell? No. He got Glen some cash. Well at least we still have the MLE to spend........................on the no one who is left to sign.

He is no Kahn. Kahn was just Taylor's mouthpiece and hatchet man. Rosas is straight con man so far. And why are those 2 extra 2 guards not playing in the summer league? You think it's Saunders holding them out? And don't give me any of that why take a chance shit. Why work out then? Why play regular season games? It's horse shit. You get better playing. But it's more important for Rosas to hide.

I was just reading that and thought the exact same thing....Talking about two unproven guys who could easily be very good players then punctuating that with Cam fucking Reynolds? I do not get what people want to bitch about Dario? I liked the guy, but not to the point where I want to pay him. He's tough for a euro, but he's not the defensive front court depth Thrill has a boner about. Rosas is building his team around his pillar that is KAT. He's drafting guys that can fit the mold of a couple different positions, and because he's been on the job for a whole few months, why can't we give the guy a fucking year to round out what he envisions. If by next year at the start of the season we haven't draft or traded for a PG and PF, then yeah, go ahead in bitch. Until then, it just sounds fucking moronic.

The Cam Reynolds stuff is just incredible to me. You would think he was the next coming of James Worthy the way some guys in here talked about his loss. But I guess it's expected , these were some of the same guys pissed that Rosas offered Tyus 4 years 18 million, and then were perplexed when Rosas declined to match a 3 year 28 million dollar contract from Memphis.

Lefevre is an interesting move from the standpoint that the coaching staff turned Texas Tech into a legitimate power. Now the head coach gets most of the credit obviously, but that staff was regarded as one of the best in college basketball. I don't pretend to know what he'll emphasize, but he's a guy who developed players at a non traditional basketball school. Zhaire Smith lottery pick, Jarrett Culver lottery pick, that means something.

Wolveschat isn't exactly PC, and history is on my side....euro style is more finesse than hard nosed, always has been. Granted, players are developing better overseas and they know the physicality has to be increased, but for every Pek, Bjelica, and even Dario......you've got a dozen of guys that fold like paper. It just is what it is...not meant to be funny or offensive. Based on the complaint of needing defensive front court depth, bitching about losing a soon to be paid Dario makes no sense what so ever. Just because he would have been the starting PF this year doesn't mean a thing, and again, is the exact opposite of what Thrill said we need....per his words.

Also it's not fair to compare anybody to Pek. The screams of his enemies suffering sustained him. He would put in headphones and go to sleep to the sound of bones crunching and breaking.

Yes impossible job when you are at the luxury cap we have the 9th highest payroll in the league.

Pray tell what great free agents we were going to sign for peanuts... then ask yourself what free agents want to come here.

It wasn’t Rosas who signed the fucking turd Andrew Wiggins.

He picked up Bell and Vonleh for pennies. Both offer defensive front court depth.

What you seem to be missing is the this team doesn't need a point guard or front court defensive depth, it needs a second star. That's it. Everything else and everyone bar Kat is irrelevant. Get the second star, whatever position it may be, then you look to fill in the roster around them.
