    He totally would have made absolutely no difference against the Joker.

    he would help with the rebounding. might as well try s*** since you're back is against the wall. Shift Wood onto Gordon so he can help with the rim protection around AD. Lebron on MPJ can't be worse then everyone else we've thrown onto MPJ whose gotten torched for the most part

    Nah only place Ham could find any minutes for that or any more for Hayes would be to cut out entirely his Vincent, DLO, Dinwiddie, Prince fetish lineup next to AD where he tries to see if he can Jedi mind trick Denver when they're Big on the floor including Joker .... into laughing or easing up and then we strike.

    We definitely need more big man depth than him. Based on what he showed last year he should be pencilled in as a third stringer, not a regular part of the rotation.

    But yeah it’s nice to have clarity on his player option so early, and also gives us extra salary filler to use in a trade

    i like his versatility, so i'm good with him coming back. but yeah, we need to find a bigger center to play 20mpg or more.

    I am happy with this, he's a talented offensive player who for some reason never clicked with Ham.

    Maybe he will have a bounce back season under a coach who actually understands how to fit players together?
    Just like many of us have been saying since last summer- Rob has to sign a big body at C.

    Wood is a pf, if Rui is still here, it's probably going to be similar minutes .
