Maybe it’ll happen but I think the GM would give himself a bad grade if it does.
I’ll take a sig bet or something else friendly. I think I have signatures turned off?
I hope they don't do what they did last season.
It won't be Powell starting at the start of the season but Kidd will look for any excuse to get him starting at some point. If we don't add someone it'll probably be Holmes at the beginning of the season like it was JaVale McGee starting at the beginning of the season last year. Hopefully Holmes doesn't do that badly.
Lively will be the Christian Wood in this scenario, he'll establish himself as the most talented one but Kidd will jerk him around at any hiccup, not put him in the best situations to succeed, and be quick to put Powell out there.
I'm more concerned about our head coach than our roster at this point.
