Wow... 6'1" 170lbs and Averaging 16.1ppg, 7.1rpg and 9.5apg. I know it's nbdl, but that's not too shabby.
That's great! He's been near the top of the D-League prospects list for a while, and he just won D-League performer of the week. I also like his Red Claws teammate Chris Babb. Maybe the Blazers should buy them because they both play in Portland...
Cheap insurance. Hopefully, we won't need him, but if we do, I'm glad we signed a pass first PG who will understand his role will be feeding Aldridge in the post and setting up his better shooting teammates on the perimeter. If nothing else, he should make garbage time more fun to watch. I hate it when guys come in during a 20-point blow out and do nothing buy jack up shot after shot to try to pad their own stats. I want to see ball movement and some semblance of running an offense. Garbage time should be a chance for the end of bench guys to get used to playing team ball - in case one of them is ever needed - not just a chance to play street ball and act like you're part of the And-1 Tour.

MLB baseball does and it shows. The NBA doesnt. It just had a 'pool' where all varying degrees of 'talent' get dropped. Development is what that league does not do. Retreads is more like it.
The timing of this signing is interesting. I wonder if the Rockets with the Beverly surgery was ready to bring him up. Noentheless, this is exactly what I wanted them to use their final spot on was a quick, young point guard who distribute. He's all these things.
Four triple-doubles and four other games in which all he needed was one rebound or assist for a triple-double.
Yes, according to Mike Tokito. PHI released him back on Februrary 24 in order to sign TRob. Five days before the March 1 cutoff for playoff eligibility. BNM
