Thread: Quinn Cook and Axel Toupan Waived

  1. #51
    I know people are worked up about backup pg but we have bigger holes to fill in our backup front court. Until Cunningham signs we are super thin there.

    Even if we did sign Cunningham I'd like to bring in another big that can play either position. DMo would be ideal if he was willing.

    It looks like we are 3.9 mil under lux level. Dante opted out at 3.5. How can we sign anything? maybe not even dc

    Dell can get rid of Q-pon & Ajinca contracts whenever he pleases. So, if we do want to re-sign DC, we can/will

    Lexie is only usable big w/experience I think he stays. If Q-pon plays he is on great deal, if not we get the medical release, he hasn't played in two years. Both of those guys could have been moved in trade earlier. just don't see it now

    Q-pon is on a great deal! You are correct. That is exactly why we can flip him easily. I would much rather Cunningham than Pondexter , even if he can play.

    I missed the summer league, was Peter Jok so bad? Doesn't he merit at least an invitation to the training camp?

    The last game I think either he or Cook was high scorer. Hit five 3s I believe. If he doesn't get a 2 way this year, he'll be back in the league on an active roster somewhere down the line.

    For combo guards we have Moore, Crawford, Jackson who can all facilitate to some degree.

    We have QPon, Miller, and Hill who can all move over to SG if needed.

    And last: We just brought in Finch to be able to get more of our offense to run through our Bigs. Oh and we have Cousins who is #1 or 2 best passing big in the league.

    The Pelicans are upset at you for this post.
    I just waited for Dell to prove you wrong and he just did. I hope Cooke is better than Cook for this team.

    I don't think training camp rosters have been finalised yet?

    if they thought he was any good they would've let him play at least a bit in the first games of SL

    By signing a SG to a two way deal? LOL. Do you even know how a 2 Way contract works? Take a walk son.

    .
    I actually didnt know but just checked. I thought this guy now replaces Cook but I guess it isnt really true. I still think we need a pure point guard on the bench and right now we dont.

    We dont have roster spots for pure PG.
    Dell is looking for players who can play multiple positions.

    Like Clark.

    We are looking for wings. Maybe bigs if OA or AA will be dump.
    Pure PG might have shot only on unguaranteed camp deal.

    I dont mind Clark at all, especially at minimum deal. I definitely prefer him over Cook so I am not upset
