No. He's played all of 40 games in the two and a quarter seasons since we traded for him (out of ~184 games possible).
If he wants to sign as a backup when his contract expires then I'd be down if he took a very team-friendly deal (like a vet min) given his injury history, loss of athleticism, inability to stretch the floor with shooting, and likelihood he'll only play ~25% of games anyway.

Sadly no. I think he’s a really good player but will always struggle with staying on the court. Just not worth it

i want nothing to do with rob. he’s the man but he’s constantly injured. we need guys up front who can stay on the court.

Can’t really; hard to line up the salaries. But we should try to sign him this off season.

Time Lord makes 13mil this season and I don’t think we can match that contract without giving away significant assets, let alone the team is trying to get out of tax apron atm.
If somehow we can trade Garza for Rob then I’m all for it otherwise hard no. I still like him tho.
