I think he got good chance making the team Montero better start improving or might be outside looking in.
It's not only the 12th-15th spots. These are out current projects\locker room guys: Pat MyLe Layman Kaman (if he re-signs) Montero Napier Vonleh Tim (if he stays). That's 7-8 guys you can't really trust in a game you care about. I get why you sign them, but there are experienced guys in the NBA, d-league and in Europe who deserve that chance as well. We don't have to commit for at least 2 seasons for every player like that, i think we should mix it up a bit more. Last year i said we should take a look at Ian Clark and we probably could have signed him this summer as well.
Lmao.. 1.) Kamans not resigning, we don't have a roster spot. 2.) With Quarterman we have 16 guys. One of Napier/Quarterman will go. 3.) Meyers doesn't belong in that group. He's a rotation player. 4.) Vonleh started for parts of last year and has a ton of potential. As an 11th man that can play emergency minutes, he's fine. So that leaves you with Pat, Layman, Montero, and Napier/Quarterman at 12th-15th. Only 2 of those guys will even suit up. So well exactly do you think we should sign to ride the bench as a 13th man over developing young guys in house?
It's not MY job to do it. I did that search once last season, not gonna spend time again just to make my point.
I really doubt that this guy sees minutes as a Trail Blazer during the regular season, or is on the roster.
Neil is still looking for that diamond in the ruff. Yes there are better player out there than some of these guys on this roster. But do they fit for the chemistry and the culture of this team.
I think it's a training camp invitation mostly, if he wows everyone he could get a real contract but it's unlikely. Also, the player I would like us to give a chance to is Pierre Jackson but Im guessing with Napier and the many players we already have (you didn't even mention Cliff Alexander) he would probably try to find a contract elsewhere. I think he's a legit backup PG, at least for a lower level team
Well don't act like you know that there's better options out there when you don't even know any other options out there.
But you still didn't bring up any real alternative you just said "There's other players that deserve a chance".
Because you're saying it as if to suggest roster changes, when there's more players that deserve a chance than there are chances. Everyone on our team deserves a chance as well.
"Dame Dolla with the dime to Quarterman" says color analyst Penny Hardaway as he high fives Buck Williams who happens to be sitting next to 50 Cent who's there to sign Dame to a record label. That would be so money!
