Well on the one hand no more "Swaggy P"

On the other hand he shot well last year...

But on the other-other hand... He's off the books. :rockon:

Our best two way player last season? Am I reaching?

I'll celebrate after he officially signs with someone else. But this is a good start.

End of an era.
Hopefully we can fill the roster with players who take their craft seriously and less clowning around.
Maybe he will sign with the Nets

He started off shooting great when we were 14-14 or whatever we were, but he came back down to earth the rest of the season

I'm going to miss him as much as I missed Smush Parker.

Well... one serviceable guard left on the team in Clarkson. I haven't read all threads yet or caught up on the news but at last understanding he was still on the Lakers.

I know a lot of people didn't like Swaggy P, but I thought he was cool. Not a winning basketball player, but he was chill and fun to watch. JC prolly not happy his best friends on the team are gone lol.

I would imagine this is how new contract negotiations would go like with Nick and Rob:

I think he would have fit well next to Lonzo. The smart move would have been to opt in, win a starting spot like he did last season and explore the FA market next season when teams are going to be spending money.
