    Ayton, Lebron and understandable Van was the most unhappy with roles. Ayton was not going to be satisfied with a bench role.

    Rob gets a C so far this season for me. The only way I would give him an A is:
    - IF had made the Sando/Grimes contracts 2 years + team option for year 3
    - Gave Grimes half of what he actually got on a per year avearge ($6mil x 3 years)
    - Re-signed Smart instead of Sexton for the same deal
    - Re-signed Hayes for the minimum
    - Uses the 2nds we just received to package to salary dump Knect+Hardy combo and uses the money saved to sign either Kuminga/Rui back

    Spencer Jones is better than Kuminga.

    Kuminga wants to be Kobe but is OJ Mayo.

    Spencer Jones wants to be a Shane Battier.
