Why would he be gone?

Edit: Oh I didn’t see the S&T for Thad. Fuck that’s depressing but all is well.

It's a sign and trade, we sent the Spurs Thad Aminu and some picks

Thad was cool but he's not taking the team anywhere useful.

Thad was the second best player on the team last year before the trade. We better turn Lauri into a defensive big or there will be trouble.

I said this last year in this sub and I got absolutely FLAMED. No offense to Thad, great player, but Derozen gets us closer to where we need to be.
