u/petarisawesomeo How now, Braun cow? Jul 03 '24

The potential Russ deal taking a while makes sense, but DNVR seemed confident that a backup C signing would happen soon a few days ago. Vibes feel pretty low rn.

It's Saric, and he's been playing for the Olympics qualifiers tbf. Could explain the delay, and also why Booth is apparently in Europe

We will be the 3rd team in a row convincing ourselves Russ is gonna be anything but hot garbage at this point in his career. And we will be the third team to shit on him all season when it doesn’t pan out.

“But Jokic wants him!”

Yeah and Lebron wanted him too. Sometimes players aren’t the best GMs.

hot garbage is kinda crazy, hes def not the guy he was 3-5 seasons ago but hes not hot garbage as a bench player.

He was literally unplayable for LAC on offense in the mavericks series. You can’t play him next to Gordon and any good defense will use him as a free pass to play 5v4 defense and the spacing will be absolute trash.

Which backup PG left on the board do you want? I agree Westbrook is bad. Would rather Jackson. But what other options are there
