I haven't seen Shaun play much, but from what I've seen he's got great vision. Now consider that he's 6-7 which means he could D up on the 2 spot, thereby allowing Devin to stay on the 1 spot on D. On offense, I think this is the ideal pairing to go with Devin, who is really just a 2 guard trapped in a 1 guard's body. Negatives: He gets hurt QUITE often. I think we should at best offer him a 2 year deal and see if he can stay on the court. If not, no big loss for us as I don't think we're going to be competitive anyway. But if he can stay healthy... Thoughts?
Interesting, but who knows what he's like after the injury. Could be Jay Williams all over again. I think we have enough youth on this team.

Shaun is a pure PG who doesn't seem to be as immature as Marcus and is probably half of Darrell's age

I would offer him a two year contract with a team option third year in a second...I would still keep Marcus as well. Shaun and Devin are both imo combo guards with Marcus being the only true point guard...they'd be a great cheap rotation for us the next few seasons...which could possibly become more if either Shaun or Marcus ever reached there full potential.

OK Ok he's also a pretty decent defender, but his middle name should be "Mediocrity"
If we could get him cheap, it'd be a great low risk/high reward move. He'd also be the perfect fit next to Carroll
The only thing I would offer him is a 1year contract at the max! The guy is coming off one of the most freakish/gruesome injuries in NBA history. Ill be suprised if he can even run up and down the court for an extended period of time
Has this guy ever not been injured? Have we ever been able to see what he can do? Does he even play defense? If you think the answer to all those questions are "no", then you've figured out whether or not I'm interested in him
He was putting up some pretty decent numbers before he went down. I wouldn't mind giving him a chance if fully recovered and sign him to a 2 year contract (second year team option).
Lets see according to Realgm and the Clippers, it takes Shaun 90 mins worth of therapy before doing any basketball related achevities so im not sure Shaun is even worth a 1yr contract or a Nets invite
Yeah, I'd also rather have Marcus over Livingston.. Preference 1) Dooling 2) Pargo 3) Keep marcus but make his ass workout every damn day of the week 4) Livingston.
