What is the plan at Center?

Nothing matters KD joined GSW so we know how the NBA is going to play out this season. Sigh it is the reason I did not watch this year's finals. Same crap different year. I miss the old NBA so much. Many more superstars and teams had more of a shot. NBA has always been the sport with the least amount of parity.

There were a lot of people in Charlotte who had accepted what Biz had become and had come to appreciate his game. We knew he wasn't a scorer, he was good at everything else though and brought energy to the defense when he was on the floor, Dennis Rodman like.

When they basically chose an aging Al over their #7 pick with upside I was confused. I was looking forward to seeing what they could do with Biz, Frank, and Kody simply because I thought Frank had that scoring element to his game at center. I thought Al was the odd man out, not Biz.

 

Biz was probably my favorite player in team history. The energy and rim protection is something we sorely miss. When I worked at the arena he was always in the gym alone working on his game. Then that stupid ass Cho (who is a complete fuging asshole in real life) just dumps him. I wish MJ would dump Cho but I think he enjoys the Blowjobs Cho gives him in his office

Apparently we are trying to move Hawes to clear more room which in other words means that the trade for pick 22 was straight up ugh. We should go after Ezeli.

At this point the trade for Marco just keeps looking worse and worse. Without that deal we would have an extra 5(accounting for what the rookie would have made) million extra in cap space which could have helped us land another contributor off the bench. Who knows though maybe Marco ends up having a Korveresque season from 2 years ago and shoots 50% from three and Cho looks like a genius for "fleecing" the kings.

It stops us from getting a legitimate center. Oh well not going to be fun watching Zeller get banged around in the paint like he's a ragdoll.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
