that's the thing, we don't even have names this year that were once good in the league even if it was 10 years ago.

Now we're sending out people like Matt Ryan, Troy Brown Jr, Damian Jones... At least we got Kendrick Nunn playing this year even though he has been terrible. And we traded THT and Stanley Johnson for Patrick Beverly? We got Juan Toscano-Anderson who was like the 12th man on the Warriors last year expecting major contributions from him lol
