    IMHO Don't do it... He could be another Oden or sad to say another Roy.

    He will end up on a playoff bound team. But he had to pass through waivers first as most of those teams are over the salary cap.
    Now they will get him for cheap.

    I would have picked him up, but I also like our guards right now. Dame/CJ/Crabbe is a really solid three guard rotation.

    With Crabbe coming into his own it makes sense but then on the other side if we had have got him, bought him to some sort of form and the used him as trade bait with Meyers in the off season it would have paid dividends.

    In hindsight I'd have taken him as a tradeable asset/waiver at end of season.

    A week after he was cut, everyone in the thread was wrong...except me.

    I like him, but he really doesn't fit what we're trying to do. We probably have too many nonshooters already.

    If he is smart he will kick back, get healthier, and wait for the right team. He is getting his 2 million either way. At some point a playoff team is going to need another PG due to an injury.
