Kind of like insuring your car with Joe’s Meat Market and Insurance Company.



I have a feeling Randle will be back, he's doing all the right things.


Yeah I think Wear and Williams are more about having enough bodies on the roster. I would presume the primary goal is to fill in for BI and Hart, I'm surprised they went a bit heavy, unless the specific goal was bench relief for Randle while we use this opportunity to test Kuzma's chops as a 3 under live fire.

Hopefully he plays or I don’t see why we signed him at all unless its because we are doing a favor to former Pelinka clients.

I think that they found out that they created a hole when they sent Nance away with no replacement. That explains Wear, Williams is just a semi-warm body.

That might be as well. Although I would think they’ll give our bench bigs more floor burn (Zubac and Bryant) and pick up back up wing with Hart out for the season but these are low risk signings

yea i still don't get why bryant gets no playing time , he tears it up in the g league and yes i know its the g league but if you compare zu avg numbers while in the g league to bryants avg numbers , bryant has been doing better in every stat and he's quicker and more athletic ... the only thing it could be is his defense , but is his defensive awareness really that bad to completely keep him off the floor??

Him and Beasley always caught my eye. I have always been for taking a chance on Beasley. Having a pretty good year for the Knicks for the vets min. Hopefully DWilliams can find a home somewhere.

Remember when people wanted to trade Pau Gasol for Pekovic and Derrick Williams?
