    Wonder if John acts bitter moving forward?

    obviously

    he has been fed lies by his agent about his net worth, hard not to catch feelings when the guy you have given fiduciary duty has your mind in one place + reality is in another.

    Well if he does take the offer and doesn't play as hard next season intentionally because of it, I can't imagine Coach Nate not benching his ass with the old school style of coaching guys he employs (from what I've been told).

    If he is seeing things out till UFA, he still has money on the line.

    But he would be a dumbass to do that. Sooo, if he does pull shit like being a bad apple = is where a garbage city like Charlotte comes in to take our used parts. Or any of the places that cant sign free agents.

    If John showed anything last year in the playoffs is that he’s a damn professional. Not worried about his behavior or resentment at all.

    Will be fun when we are laughably predicted to be 6/7th behind teams like the old ass Heat, Knicks, and maybe even the Bulls.

    Getting Cooper on a 2 way, letting him get a year of development, and then seeing what you got in April seems like the steal of the century. Hard to not see him being able to get to spots against second units.

    and Jalen feels like an easy replacement for Gallo. If his head is right, his length and skill set is just picture perfect for this roster.

    Jalen Johnson is one hell of an athlete. He’s also the type that may make it easy to trade John Collins in a few years when we have to make tough payroll decisions.

    Keeps his head on straight and the sky is the limit for him

    I just could not be happier with Cooper and Johnson. I could see Cooper being the primary backup for Trae by the end of the regular season.

    Maybe not exactly, but Jalen Johnson has some insane dunking power like JC.

    God damn, Cooper is so good. Definitely looks like Trae in that he's not afraid of the basket ever even when he should make an extra pass, but holy hell can he create a shot.

    Cam is already amazing on defense. Just want him to be more aggressive because he can be so passive and settle for shots or immediately look to pass. Put the ball on the floor sometimes young man.

    If Collins improved his dribbling by ~35% over the offseason, he’s an All-Star this season. But, my goodness, that dunk last night has to be the best preseason dunk I can ever remember.

    That’s an awesome number for KVon and I imagine we have a pretty happy locker room, everyone locked into their role. Only guy that seems like he doesn’t love his role is Cam but if he can shoot corner 3s, attack close outs and play elite defense he will turn into a really fn good player.


    Guess I’m gonna buy league pass since YTTV and Bally’s cant figure their shit out

    We now have four key players locked up for at least four years more: Trae, Cap, JC and Red Velvet. We will likely give a big rookie extension to Hunter next offseason barring some continued knee issues. Plenty of ammunition to get another star. We are sitting very pretty for our long term future. Great chemistry, everyone is on the upswing in performance other than Cap and Bogie (at worst they are just plateauing). Good time to be a fan.
