    We aren't asking him to be our starter. Use him with CJ to help make scoring easier off the bench. There's only 8-10 minutes available at PG anyway.

    But he's a play maker and even more a terrific passer. That's key in this offense.

    As a backup he'd be fine. I would welcome back happily because he's better than anything we've had in a few years. That and I believe he's mature and ready to make a run with us if all components are there.

    I'd prefer Sergio at 12 minutes per game than Blake.

    And if Plumlee and Sergio are on the same team.... I see two easy buckets per game from Plumlee on nasty lobs from Sergio. Does that make up for the other shortcomings? I have no idea.

    But.... I repeat.... I'd rather see Sergio out there over Blake.

    I actually like Sergio and he is better than Blake. As constructed the team has plenty of pure shooters but passing has been a weakness, even more so now with Batum gone

    Neither on the team cause they can't shoot

    I don't disagree with you. It's Olshey and Stotts that do. They want shooters, and all else be damned

    I'm not that person anymore. I'm not trying to win or make someone else lose. I am just having fun. It might be just for my sake though, so I'll need to watch that.

    I enjoy the posts, especially when it's fun around here. Not enough of that these days

    I love Sergio, and he's actually got a three point shot now. But he will expect more than the minimum offered to Tim Frazier but you can't really play him alongside either CJ or Damian for more than spot minutes, so that negates his value to us. I predict he goes to New Orleans or Sacramento if he does indeed return.
