    Vanderbilt needs to start when he’s done ramping up

  2. PuntyMcBunty

    Excited to get both back!

    The news was a little less optimistic on Vandy, though. Just says the team is optimistic that he’ll progress in the next few weeks. That doesn’t sound to me like he’s ramping up.

  3. Musicfan637

    No please. We finally have our winning rotation. Forget those guys. They’re just wasting our money.

    These guys would single handedly improve the defense tenfold. If gabe can shoot like he did in the playoffs last year he will be an extremely valuable piece off the bench

    Praying to the heavens that Gabe is immediately better than Max and Dinwiddie. The bar ain’t even that high

  6. Not sure where or how Gabe is going to fit if the plan is still to have Dinwiddie in the rotation. There’s no way to play both Gabe AND Dinwiddie, on top of Ham’s love for Cam.

    Ideally this pushes Max/ Dinwiddie/Cam to the end of the bench

    Let’s go! Vando gonna lock up the West. At this point I don’t see how Gabe fits within the team. I prefer to give minutes to max

  9. NoPin5154

    I’m getting way too hard hearing about ole players returning

  10. Hope Vincent has been able to practice shooting at least. Need him to be lights out from 3

    if everyones healthy?

    bron, ad, dlo, reaves, rui, vando, spencer,
    gabe with one of hayes/wood with prince in spot minutes. dnps for cam and max.

    last year we ran the first 6 plus lonnie/dennis. gabe/spencer effectively replace them and we got prince as well.

  12. Hate to burst the bubble but Gabe has been out for SO long. To imagine him coming in and instantly being in peak performance is only setting up for heartbreak. Vando, sure. He’s played a lot and can more likely quickly find his way back. Gabe? Ooof. That’s a big ask.

  13. shootinjack

    Ham is going to struggle figuring this out unfortunately

  14. elitejesse84

    I think Vando will be key to being to get pass Denver. Lakers can afford to let Joker go crazy but what will hurt us is if Murray goes off also.

  15. Great news – excited to finally see what GV can do

  16. pacpacpac

    We don’t need Gabe unless it’s a very limited role imho.

  17. Musicfan637

    Vando has been traded multiple times for a reason. Zero offense. Rui is 40 x better. Defense is not our bag. Look at the scores around the league.

  18. Tough luck. They’ll still be out of rhythm when it matters the most.

    Fucken sham and his filter. Looks AI to me

    Normally this would be good news, but with Darvin Ham, it scares me. I can see him forcing both guys into the lineup regardless of whether it’s working or not. Same with Reddish being back.
