And from the small amount I've seen of Jerebko, none of it's very good, seems lost out there...assuming/hoping he'll be much better not too long after the games start to count.

Javale signed the vet minimum to play with LA. Honestly, it was time for the Dubs to turn the center position over to the younger guys . Jones is basically the big guy who will get his time.

People need to relax on Jerebko. He can drain open 3s and is an upgrade over Omri. Casspi was pretty disappointing even when healthy.

I would've been okay with one more year of McGee, but maybe Jones works out.

Re: Jerebko, my comment had nothing to do with Casspi, just saying the little bit I've seen of Jerebko hasn't been good, not saying he won't improve, just stating my opinion of what I saw. Only thing I can say about Casspi is that during a stretch in Nov-Dec last year he was solid in quite a few games, but I think he got hurt and after that he was pretty bad, made it an easy decision to release him.

McKinnie's deal is non-guaranteed until January 10th. Myers is about to play hardball and show McCaw he has no leverage. I love it.

Evans will play garbage time. Thats it unless he dramatically improves his shooting.

Westbrook likely isn't playing Tuesday. I like our chances.

Weird. I have this vague memory of losing both games. I think I am getting KDs first game and thr first ring ceremony confused.

I stand corrected.
