I took my son to that camp. He had a great time, and Dain was sending shots across the court. Sad to see Dain go, but hopefully he does well at Memphis!

Kids have been paid to NOT go on visits. Taking the under here.

I think in our "two-year window" methodology, the process works like this: Year 1: Load up on multi-year guys and see who develops Get enough old talent to be competitive Year 2: Shed players that didn't develop Pay the guys you want to keep Get older stars to fill gaps

All the grumps getting this upset over Coleman is just silly. Good luck to him and I hope he kills it wherever he goes!

To say that we did anything but miss on our top scoring/wing targets so far is an absolute lie. We can try to sell that these kids are a better fit, so we feel better about what we missed on, but that's not 100% true. If we are paying $1M (which is much more than other bidders!)for some 17yr...
