I like this a lot. Good veteran. Plays hard. Rebounds first and foremost which is one of our biggest weaknesses in my opinion.

Maybe Dumars does know what he’s doing?

Much needed toughness and rebounding.

Great price too. And if he falls off a cliff, it's only a two year deal.

Great signing

Looney was not good this year. I think he’s past his prime. This reminds me of the Derrick Favors signing.

Maybe he bounces back but idk

8 mil per year for two years. No complaints over here. Missi should be ready to wreck shite by then

We needed another Naji dog type and this guy is exactly that. Now we have our backup center.

But we didn't pay him like he was in his prime. We need him to give us quality minutes along with Missi. We don't even necessarily need for him to start. He's not getting starter money.

Outside of a true stretch 5, Looney is exactly the kind of center that we need.

no he’s not and that’s a good thing because he was basically out of GSW rotation at the end of the year. It’s possible he’s cooked

we will see. If nothing else he can eat minutes and they’ll have an 8MM expiring next year

OK, now that we have a center, what are we still looking for besides a coach with a brain?

Looney is only 29 years old. As of February. So weird how people are acting like he’s Brooke Lopez old.
