    Not a surprise really. Ideally he won’t be in the rotation. Could also use his contract in a trade for a younger player.

    Ideally he will be in the rotation because he can bring the ball up the court and initiate the offense. That’s if he can calm down and not rush things. If he can’t, then he should not be in the rotation.

    He did that a lot in the bubble. I like how he push's the ball up court more so than Simons.

    Ideally, we'll have someone better to boot him out of the rotation.

    Ideally Mario would not be in the rotation because he sucks. Id rather have Evan turner.

    Not saying my first choice is turner....

    I kind of have to admit that it might be amusing to see ET, Mario on the same unit. It will either be the most beautiful thing ever - or a staple segment on Shaqtin' a fool (and I like both these guys more than most here, I suspect).

    I think ET would be great coming off our bench. Backup PG vet! I'd do it yesterday.

    Mario will take his pay to be the Jack Haley of this year's squad.

    Hezonja sucks. I’d much rather give minutes to Gabriel.

    They aren’t at all the same player in what is expected of them though. Mario can bring the ball up the court and could be decent if he ever gets confidence. Gabriel is an athletic roster filler who will be out of the league in a year or two. Maybe see if Little has some playmaking skills? That seems interesting.

    I remember him screwing up a simple pass more than accomplishing a great play.
