    Like they cheered for Fisher? They can be vicious.

    Matthews wanted Utah to sign the offer sheet. He wanted to stay in Utah so I doubt the fans will be mad at him.

    He's going to have a lot of games in single digits this season, doesnt mean he's not valuable or a good player. If people are expecting him to score 20 every night they're going to be disappointed.

    I totally agree, just around here that might be tough to comprehend.

    Not really. He has an all-around game, though. Maybe kpee, Chad, and Mike knew what they were doing?

    38% is good. Rudy, Webster, and Batum are all right around there..

    My point was he is being paid to be more than a 3pt shooter. Rudy is a lost cause, Webster is on the worst team in the league, and Batum is more than a 3pt shooter. I think you missed the point of my post.

    From an ESPN article:

    The S2 board wouldn't reproduce the entire ESPN article, so I summarized the reason he wasn't drafted as

    Many other boards, such as this one, just reprinted the whole article.
