Oh, the Wiz!

Fact!

I think most were hoping Minny would be dumb enough to trade KAT. I think the overall consensus was that Butler and Thibs would be gone before KAT. But you did say Jimmy wasn't going anywhere either.

Patchwork defense with Neal, Jones and Takk out. That might be hard to overcome - their backups just aren't as good.

Ouch!

If at SF, he'll be matched up with Taurean Prince.

I think he'll be handling the ball like Toni Kucoc or like @kg01 fave Hedo Turk. Point Forward.

That come back win against San Jose, wow, Just WOW!!!

I'm ready and excited for the season. Let's Go Hawks!!!

Count me as one that will be VERY surprised if we make the playoffs.

Where is Baze and his Gaze?

There's a difference between signing Kyrie as a FA vs trading for Jimmy Butler today, particularly when he's about to become a FA and they'd have the capspace to do so.

Video...

Justin Anderson “underwent successful surgery on his left leg to address recurring tibial stress syndrome.”

There's leading by example, like Tim Duncan whose teammates love him dearly. Then there's Jimmy's style whose teammate apparently don't. There are ways to lead that don't belittle your teammates. Pippen said he wasnt a good leader in Chicago disrespecting the coaches etc. He and DWade played keep away from the young guys in actual games. Schlrnk has already said teams make mistakes by rushing the rebuilding process and he won't. Fizdale agrees: "New coach David Fizdale seemed on board with not making any big splash before free agency. “We want to build it from the ground up culturally, through the draft, like Steve is talking about. We don’t want to jump at the shiny things,” Fizdale said. “We want to make solid decisions and be patient with this process. I’m a big part of that process. If I get rattled or start trying to nudge these guys, I’m too big a chunk to be disrupting this process. I’m locked into developing these kids and pouring in everything that I have into that right now.”

I did not know .Anderson had surgery??

eeeeww.
