    Should be noted he had surgery a couple days ago, I would not expect he or Morris to play for us, at least in his case for a while

    kleber's had serious injury issues for a while now. on the rare occasion he plays, he's still pretty good, actually!

    but his age and injury history tells me he's just an expiring salary to have for next year.

    One dead guy is resurrected and another one comes in to take his place.

    kleber can be traded by himself, so if there's a player we could use for 11 million or less...

    I was just about to ask whether he can be combined in a trade or not...

    I'm thinking Maxi Kleiber and a 2nd for Robert Williams if all else fails...

    God damn it...Robert Williams makes too much smh.


    OK so we can still do a deal with Utah - Maxi Kleiber and our remaining 1st round pick plus lifting the protection on 2027 pick for Walker Kessler, Juzang, and Mykhailliuk works in the trade machine.


    We can also do Jonas Valunciunas for Maxi Kleiber straight up.

    Hopefully they use Kleiber as an 11m trade chip. That's a handy player they can get back.

    Great interview. Well spoken. Smart. Seems like a great glue guy to help Luka and JJ.

    kleber's actually an outstanding role player when he's healthy. but he really hasn't been for some time and is just getting older.

    by all accounts he's a good guy, though.

    could have worse dead weight than him and kieff.
