    Let’s put this into perspective. Simmons is here for Defense. Perimeter defense. Long arms length. Ball handling and play making. Helping Lebron out. playing some Center off the bench. If I can get him for a veterans minimum I’m all for it.

    interesting career trajectory, and he's only 28. His free throw shooting improved last year.

    I don’t know who Y’all is but I was not a fan of Dlo. Check the receipts. I know numerous members who claimed he was mentally soft. I was one of them.

    A 6'10 PG..That wants to defend..and not bad at throwing lobs....he's worth a flyer IMO.

    He's a 6-4 2 guard..he's ok..I'd rather shoot for a longer guy that can switch and hold his own. But he's not exactly a scrub

    All for bringing in Okogie. He's not good enough to be our POA guy in the closing lineups, but can be a back-half of the rotation guy which we really need.

    Okogi would be a good get for depth alone.

    He can play. Might not be the best, but I’d surely take him before Shake

    I know the FO likes to have an open roster spot for in-season buyouts, but Okogie (or Beal, Melton or Smart) are probably better than anyone getting bought out during the season. If we're not able to open up a roster spot via consolidation trade, I hope they just waive Shake and fill the 15th spot with one of these guys.
