This guy is available and has a 6'10 wingspan.

I think Phil might be put off by the attitude issues that have been reported. Maybe Phil won't care but thats what I have heard.

I agree. I think Waiters is the smart pick up but Rice is incredibly talented if he can put it together.

I hope fans now chill out about Phil

Not picking up Larkin, there are plenty


Galloways to be found in this league

Calderon, smith, and THJ cAnt be on the court together. They are too slow footed on defense and don't play with a tough energy

Jason SMith is HORRIBLE. Holy crap he is terrible if only Acy had Jasons height

but the system dictates guarding the paint, and leaving the perimeter, so i'm not sure it even matters weather you have an elite perimeter defender


You do realize that Phil jackson has had some of the best defensive teams and won titles playing his system on offense and defense. He isn't a fool. Teams shot 3's when he was coaching too. Remember he faced the Suns with MDA. It's not like he has no idea about the game. Don't judge everything based on how this years team has looked.

Acy can stay and Pablo needs to go to a contender

That doesn't matter. Its not like Phil/Mills will demand value back anyway

I like the speed that Galloway plays at. He just needs to get his feel for the NBA level but he has some real positive traits.

Travis Wear. Nice

Why do the refs give harden everything even extra steps

That was ridiculous as is Reggie with the Harden love.

I know we are not talented, but Fisher could have certainly done better. The young kids got the game very close, and found their way on the bench

Looking more and more relaxed on offense.

Looking more and more like a guy who can give you 15-20 MPG.


The facial hair gives him a tougher look.

TPercy @ 1/8/2015 9:26 PM
Stick to our summer league guys who were on, more comfortable playing and play good as a team on defense, confident and great in trasition and just okay on offense. Start from there and build.

Wear on the verge of improving that 41% shooting and getting that 46 TS% up.

Still early in terms of developing the youngsters. If you continue to see a differentiation between certain groupings of players you will see permanent changes as the season continues.

Don't think that the relative performances of the starters and the kids was not noticed by Fisher and Phil.


Fisher is still trying out different combinations, and now, with Early back and Galloway in the mix, his job is that more difficult.

I think he is showing Ariza more love being from UCLA

Harden is averaging 35pts last couple of games

I want to see the Nasty, when is he going to get the call????

Harden is the new darling... has to be protected by the refs and talked up by the Harden sycophants like Reggie.
