    They expect Wright to play Batum-style. He tries to be a ball hog, but it just isn't his style.

    The fact that his last name doesn't even rate a Capital in the thread title says it all.

    I still think he did some good things last season, he just needs to be used more to his strengths. No dribbling, more open jumpers. The problem is he didnt get a lot of time with the ball movement guys. He was stuck with mo dribble.

    I was looking around the league at small forwards (wondering if there was someone decent that a tanking team might give up for Leonard and Crabbe), and I noticed that Wright was actually 37th in the league at SF in PER (44th if you include "non-qualified" players). Fewer than half of the league's teams even had a SF with a PER above 15. There is very little quality league-wide at the 3 spot; I think we're actually in better shape (relative to other teams) than most of us realize.

    Let's talk about Wright ba-by. Let's talk about Rip-City, let's talk about all the good things, and the bad things that may-be.

    I prefer Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme. Straight from the Bronx. They better than Salt'n Pepa. Yeah, they just two spices, PSRT is four. And SnP common spices...
