Makes you wonder if Kuminga is willing to go the Julius Randle route and take a one-year prove it deal to get more money next year. Problem is, I don't think we go into the tax so it would cost us Herb, Jose, Hawk for sure.

Can someone explain the Capella signing? Is he really going to be third string on the Rockets?

He will play. Adams will have limited minutes.

Sengun’s going to play over 30 minutes a game. Adams averaged 27 last season. Jabari’s going to play the 4 and 5 on occasion. And KD’s going to play a lot of 4. Capellas not going to play any meaningful minutes unless there is an injury I don’t know about yet.

Back to us, I’m really curious what Gary Payton is going to cost(I doubt much). While we are adding Warriors, we really need another wing defender and “dog”. His energy, effort and attitude would be great on our bench, not to mention a little insurance if Herb goes down for any meaningful time.

Adams played 14mpg and hasn't played a full season with the way he's played. I would bet, he's the odd man out and not capela

My bad, not sure why basketball reference has a grey line separating last season but it threw me off. 14 is correct.

I’d take a chance on Caleb Houstan. 6’8, only 22 and has been a good shooter on limited volume in Orlando.

You cannot do a S&T for 1 year. If he’s taking a one year prove it deal, it would almost have to be with Brooklyn as they are the e only team with any real cap space.

No but you can do a 3 yr with only the 1st year guaranteed. He just re-signs after the season.

To whoever said "I wouldn't want Kuminga if it cost us nothing" you are insane.

If its true that there's only (4) teams interested in Kuminga and no matter what he has to take a small deal this year then we may actually have an advantage by having Poole/ Looney. I'd imagine him and Poole are close being drafted a year apart and playing a few years together. Obviously Looney is probably close with both of them.

I doubt it but it is quite interesting considering the recent moves.
