    Sure ok, he was barely even in the rotation for Brooklyn last year but I'm sure it was because he was too busy creating a culture - whatever that means.

    Get out of here with this culture stuff. That's just narrative that is generated after the ball goes in or out

    TyTy couldn't be your third string PG? I get the need for vets, but damn. Paying the hawks to take two recent first rounders, just so you can take on Patty Mills? Doesn't make sense

    I watched alot of Patty Mills on the Nets. This guy is either flaming hot or ice cold on offense.

    Solid defense player that tries his best tho undersized.

    I gotta be honest, not loving these moves. Pretty underwhelming. Damn...

    Just remember, half of this team will probably be gone in a few years. Traded/cut/lost in FA, whatever. The rebuild isn’t done, and we need a few vets to build off of, and to continue to teach the pups. If you’re disappointed that we aren’t going to be the 2023-24 champs, and you think it’s bc we got Patty Mills, then you just aren’t getting the big picture.

    I think that describes some of the fans better than it does the Rockets.

    League said you have to spend the money not set it on fire.

    Two Aussies in the same day! Wow!
    Interestingly, both went to St.Mary, both from the San Antonio Spurs pedigree.

    I like the moves.

    As long as we didn't give up much...like the move. Great mentor (always coaching on the bench)...free agent next year...again all this is great as long as we didn't give up much!
