We’re already seeing the team get on board with this. Nurse is running Watson and Flynn off the bench to get them more comfortable for next season.Quote:

I don’t think we would be anywhere closer to winning if we let siakam walk.Quote:

Yeah we’re not taking that. Rather stand pat.Quote:

Not sure how Wiseman has been but wouldnt mind that Minny pick :P
Maybe it was covid but not sure how so many teams whiffed on Wood. I think that was an extremely anomalous signing. It would be very hard to love up to that standard ha.Quote:
