    If Raymond Felton hasn't completely fallen off the cliff, he will have a real chance to make the team.

    A healthy Luc would be HUGE. There were times the year he was here, which was also PJ's first year, where lots of posters felt that he was even better than PJ and people were questioning why we paid Tucker so much. I think most everyone appreciates the grit and toughness that Tucker brings to the game now after going to battle with him the last 2 years, but there was some debate back then that Luc was even more valuable. It isn't talked about much, but his injury was a huge blow to our chances of derailing GS even before Paul went down.

    If healthy, Sefolosha or Mbah a Moute could play really meaningful roles for this team.

    Interesting back-end roster decisions incoming.

    Moute as a 3/4 and Thabo as a 2/3 for defense would be good additions. Real playable depth.

    I’m here for Thabo and Luc...don’t care about the rest and definitely don’t want to see T-Jones, Swaggy P, or scrub Brew on the roster

    Thabo and Luc?! Things are getting very interesting now. Those are 2 high level defensive players with tons of experience that can play the 3 and 4. I'm liking this news a lot.

    @Deuce wow, looking at the timestamps for this tweet from Alykhan and Iko's in the OP, looks like Alykhan and Iko decided which one of them was going to break the Luc story first. Alykhan was sitting on that story for weeks, right? Two colleagues from The Athletic not out-scooping each other.
