I think he'll get picked up by somebody but, with Houston's combo guard bonanza, I just can't believe he hasn't been cut yet.


He ain't going nowhere he's actually played really well... looks like he's got his shooting touch back 2/3 from 3 tonight so far.

He's also playing the Hornets, but good for him if he can find his touch again.

Boxscore says "DNP Coaches Decision", but i doubt a coach would just sit a player like that in a pre-season game , unless they were a top pick, so im guessing he's injured?

TD is built to be a backup/3rdString, the pressure of starting crushed him..

i know they're playing uptempo, but he's got 9 rebounds in 16mins so far. And he's playing solid defense. As long as he keeps catching and dunking, he's going to be a solid signing. and he can pass too.

The things with the Raps is that they always show flashes, but have trouble with their youth taking that next step. Kinda like we used to have with our young yeams of the past.

Ty Lawson looking a bit sloppy. JaVale still an enigma to me.

Just seen Jeremy Lin, didn't play. Playoffs, and now the preseason. Injured without even completing one NBA season? I mean, the same can also be said for Shumpert but then again, Shump wasn't the one asking for millions upon millions of dollars due to a very nice (and impactful) NBA stretch. Not trying to turn this into yet (another) Lin thread, but noticed how he's still hurting.

You're right. I knew he played the first game but just looked at the box score for last night's game. Seen Jeremy LAMB was out with an injury. Failed to see Jeremy Lin put up a decent game. Too early for all this :lol:
