    Lol, he even admitted to needing to get better at setting up his team mates. So... I win!

    He needs to learn to pass when he is cut off on his drive and has no where to go. Instead he puts up terrible fg% shots that habe no possibilty of going in. When he is hitting threes, and getting to the basket he's good. But learn to pass man.

    That hook with the right off glass CJ seems to have polished in the off-season is gonna be very useful against rim protectors and good defenders contesting his shot

    If only they could cut his pay 50%, he'd look like a good player.

    Unlike Evan Turner. If you cut his pay by 50%, he'd still look like a bad player.

    In Boston, Turner and Isaiah Thomas said many dumbo quotes to the media. That's how he earned 80% of his pay there, as an offcourt entertainer. So he's not earning 80% times $3.3 million = $2.8M here. Therefore, he should only make $17.1 - 2.8 = $14.3M.

    Too much time on my hands tonight. Need to get back to my cure for cancer lab in the garage.

    Clippers Match Tyrone Wallace's Offer Sheet With Pelicans
    Sep 5, 2018 9:14 PM

    [​IMG]
    The Los Angeles Clippers have matched the offer sheet Tyrone Wallace signed with the New Orleans Pelicans.

    The Clippers now have 17 contracts on their roster, (emphasis mine) which will require them to make multiple roster moves before the season stars.

    Pass to who? I’d rather he and Dame take difficult low % shots every time down the floor, than anybody else on our team shoot.

    ESPN.com should add another line.

    Olshey Analysis: -10 Wins. "I'm not sure Jimmy Butler will fit our team and what we're trying to do. Evan Turner gives us a third ball handler".

    That would be sweet, I really like his game and think he'd be a good fit.
