    1 last correction, it's "g'day mate", we like to really destroy the English language down here

    No, he actually meant "good eye". It's a common phrase intended to compliment one's keen powers of perception.

    I'm reading that Kendell Marshall was traded to the Suns and is expected to be waived. For some reason, I just can't shake the notion that he would be a good third string PG.

    In common Oregonian good eye means, good eye as in "you have a good eye for talent" Just kidding my friend!

    Depends how he comes back off the torn ACL next year, but he was playing pretty well with the Bucks earlier this season before the injury.

    I think it's worth looking into the best D league pt guards that are young, coachable and cheap..Let Blake teach a young DNP pt guard and give him a ringside seat in a suit for the rest of the season

    Someone else mentioned Seth Curry. I think that would be a good option, especially if he were somehow able to psych out his big brother when we inevitably meet them in the playoffs.

    Kalin Lucas was in camp with the Blazers, and was called up by the Grizzlies earlier this season on a 10-day contract.

    The Spurs have used the D league with really good success allowing them to develop and keeping the vets paid well.

    The idea of just letting Sly waive a towel on the sidelines in a suit is starting to grow on me. They could pay him in bobbleheads and jerseys, float him some swag and save the cap space

    If Seth could play 50% of his dad's and brothers skill, he would be a good pick up. The trash talk between him and his brother would be well researched too

    ...T-Rob 30 days after Denver buys him out...his toughness and energy in the playoffs last year is widely underrated within this fanbase!

    I'd look at the D-League.

    You can find some gems. Robert Covington being a great example - he bounced around in HOU/MIN but the Sixers gave him a chance. He's a legit shooter from three.
