We got way more production out of him than I was expecting.
We can use him in a S&T in the Mikal trade I believe
I really hope this is tied to keeping IHart cause otherwise I’d really want Precious back. He was really good for us.
for what its worth he was good for a while. i hope he improves then comes back someday.
can’t say enough about his play for us after hearing how much he wasn’t appreciated in toronto. wish him all the best if it’s not with us.
He’ll get a good deal somewhere else. Thanks to the iHart situation we can’t even afford to give out a single minimum contract. Wish him the best, he had some surprisingly good defensive stints against last year’s MVP.
To be expected. I’ll always appreciate how he stepped up in the Sixers series.
What the fuark. Precious dragged his nuts across Embiid (no Diddy). We wouldn’t have won game 4 if it wasn’t for him.
Sad
I learned to love Precious
I don’t think he’s hit his final form yet but the team only has so many resources.
My precious. I hope he finds success wherever he ends up.
He was pretty good here, please bring back Hartenstein now
Don’t you lose the bird rights when you don’t extend a QO? Meaning he can’t be part of a sign n trade?
He’s a dawg. I’ll always root for him. He gave us some great minutes when we needed him most.
I’ll miss Precious. He wildly exceeded my expectations. Was really really good for us when called upon.
Bummer. I loved his intensity and those recovery blocks. So many times this year you would think a guy would score easily after getting by our guards and Precious comes out of nowhere on the help with the block.
Man that makes me sad. Great player & teammate. Whoever snatches him up is going to be lucky.
