Meanwhile, Desmond Bane putting up 20 ppg so far this season.

Can DL get fired again?

Not fired… just consulting. I mean it’s not like us internet dweebs could have done better… no one was pumping that guy… no one could have known an athletic hard working kid who already could shoot the **** out of the ball would amount to anything.

Dok needs to get in shape. He's winning the Dinner Bell Mel Turpin award right now.

Once he gets in shape and learns how to play basketball he will be a solid backup… which isn’t something you can just find at the minimum… oh wait…

Typically not a woulda, coulda, shoulda guy when it comes to the draft but passing up Bane was ****ing ponderous when they traded for a poor man's version of him with Hughes 9 picks later.

And 6 picks later you'll find Jordan Nwora, who's currently averging 11ppg off a deep Bucks bench.
 
As for Doke, after one full season we are resending him to the stars? Where's the progress guys? I need to see something more like "Dok Team Option Declined".

Gotta do it the proper way. Bring DL back to pick up Doke's team option, so he can give away our 2029 and 2030's 2nd rounders next summer to get rid of Doke's contract. Then we can fire him again.

Thought it was telling that Fitts was put on the active roster instead of him.

Why? There just isn’t room for Udoka to play with Rudy and Whiteside being two elite rim protectors. Granted there isn’t much room for Fitz either but he fills a more critical position, and I would think he would have a better chance to play with him playing a more premium position
 
The Stars released their training camp roster today. DWade's son and Thurl Bailey's son are on it. There is a guard that was Malachi Flynn's back court partner on a team that went 30-2 at San Diego State, and a 6'6" dude from Fordham that was MVP in a league in Chile. The Jazz training camp cuts are there. I think they have to cut three guys from the list.

It’s telling because it says we will definitely go small before we use Udoka and there were a few here talking about how Udoka was going to push Whiteside for time. Well guess what… he is the 4th string center behind Rudy, Hassan, Paschall… had a full year in the league… full training camp and preseason… and no progress yet. G League may help him, but it appears we drafted another developmental backup center that will fail to jump over that super low bar. Hell he might very well be behind Fitts on the center options depth chart.

Is that the son who got married?
 
Dok was a terrible pick and is now an exercise in sunk cost. If we can get a ham sammich that saves us on the tax we should take it.
