Then have two lottery picks to take Shabazz and Alex Len. A starting lineup of Kyrie, Dion, Shabazz, TT and Len with Gee, Lamb/Jones and Zeller off the bench.

One can dream haha...
We're not LA or Boston so its not going to happen.

If he has it hasnt been much

I'm not sure if trading Andy is the right move. Can you imagine this team without Andy? We might have a handful of legit NBA talent on this team, you take away Andy and it's only going to slow the development of guys like Kyrie, Dion, Zeller etc.. These guys will be forced to do more with less and thats not always a good thing. It better be a hell of a deal if one is made

Varejao 20 and 18.....he's throwing up some nice numbers. Will he have a prayer at being an AS?

Really disappointing performance at home tonight after how they hung with Miami and Memphis.

Waiters with another 7/20. 42/139 over the past 8 games now. 30%. 12/48 from 3 during that stretch. Quite a slump.

He will get better. Having kyrie out hurts him a bit also. Kyrie really opens things up for waiters

I don't blame waiters. He's a rookie who's forced to be the #1 option with kyrie out. We have Andy who's been amazing, a couple pretty good young players and then a giant bag of shit. I don't think they win more than 1 game without kyrie. They're just awful.

Didn't watch the game last night (glad I didn't catch it in retrospect) but I like that Scott is commending Andy. He sort of threw the rest of the team under the bus, which I like but also don't like. I like him not being a *****, but at the same time look at the roster. Not sure what he expects.

My roommate is a Suns fan so I watched it with him. If you had to coach the performance that transpired last night, you'd throw the team under the bus too. It was F*CKING pathetic.

Tristan did a good job of getting looks early. He also did a terrible job of converting. We started the game 0-9 on shots in the paint. Then of course the 5.5 minute scoreless drought when we had actually clawed back to around 5 or 6 points.

Meh..Not sure how much slack I really want to give Waiters. You can use the Kyrie not being there excuse, but who did Kyrie have last year?

meh.. I wasnt a fan of the TT pick, either. But the draft was really weak that year. It was pretty deep last year and we passed up on some nice guys to take Waiters.

Yeah I wanted Beal and Lamb. Beal didn't last, Lamb its hard to gauge. Too soon to tell IMO.

Anthony Parker and Ramon sessions were key guys on the team. Not great players for the league but they were some of our best last year

Bout time. Jones knock has been his D, but no one is playing D on the big club anyways.

Walton isn't going anywhere for the simple fact his contract is a big trade chip (expiring)

Good win tonight. Terrible defense giving up two 3s in the final 30 seconds to let Atlanta tie, but Cavs made a bunch of big shots down the stretch.

Gee cleans up a horrible miss with 0.4 left and lays in the winner.
