    As long as Codman is still on our team, we need to keep Nene, for his "ears."

    If harden ever goes on a mystical quest and needs a guide to help him fight a dragon, NeNe is the man

    Nene is the wise old man like Master Splinter.

    Haven't you seen any kung fu movies? Morey has.

    he's a cheap expiring, a seasoned vet, good locker room guy, like how he should be. nothing's wrong here.

    He has a point.

    Nene was given a 3 year contract (at age 35) that escalates to almost $4m in year 3. He's pretty much a negative value at the moment and can't be moved until next year to be considered an asset.

    Should expect a bounce back year after that letdown last season. He was huge part of our success in 2016. We might not beat okc without him. I honestly think we beat San Antonio if he doesn’t get injured but that’s the story every year for us. If only somebody important didn’t get injured:(
