    As long as Codman is still on our team, we need to keep Nene, for his "ears."

    If harden ever goes on a mystical quest and needs a guide to help him fight a dragon, NeNe is the man

    Nene is the wise old man like Master Splinter.

    Haven't you seen any kung fu movies? Morey has.

    He’s here to kick butt and chew bubblegum.


    He’s our hit man.

    he's a cheap expiring, a seasoned vet, good locker room guy, like how he should be. nothing's wrong here.

    He has a point.

    Nene was given a 3 year contract (at age 35) that escalates to almost $4m in year 3. He's pretty much a negative value at the moment and can't be moved until next year to be considered an asset.

    Should expect a bounce back year after that letdown last season. He was huge part of our success in 2016. We might not beat okc without him. I honestly think we beat San Antonio if he doesn’t get injured but that’s the story every year for us. If only somebody important didn’t get injured:(
