Watching Zubac ragdoll our bigs leads me back to wonder: why not Richaun Holmes or Theis instead of Bullock? I know a lot of us here wanted to pursue him. Couldn’t we have carved out room for Holmes and Tim? We need a big man who plays with physicality and edge, that provides some rim protection and pnr. Dwight Powell and WCS and Boban simply aren’t good enough. KP probably shouldn’t play exclusively 5 to save on wear and tear.
Maybe try starting Bullock in place of THJ? Or would the “leadership council” take issue?
We all agree we need another playmaker (Dragic, hopefully) but as the season goes on not solving the Center spot has continued to haunt us. Just such a poor roster construct. Thank god for the Frankie signing, saving grace.
Also, cross Ibaka off the TPE trade target list. Dude looks done. Wonder how much OKC wants for Favors? I don’t think any team will give up a first for him.

Holmes just may not have been available. Maybe he wanted to stay in Sacramento? Seems like he took a friendly deal to stay there. Favors could be an improvement. We need a big that doesn’t get pushed around on D by true bigs
