NOT ME.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

Absolutely not. The guy is not a team player.

Id love to have him here if he would be willing to be a 6th man. We need scoring off our bench, and we need a backup PG. I honestly cant think of a better fit.

Just as long as hes on a 1 year deal so if he acts up we can waive him.

if he was to come here for the mininum and with his skillset, i would at least consider it, and come off the bench, his attitude is horrible, but his swagger would be nice to add to this team....

No, he'll probably hurt more than help.

I agree that if we get him on a 1 year deal then absolutely bring him in. If he starts to show an attitude or disrespect SVG and the other players then out he goes. No questions asked. It is a low-risk high-reward situation. Best scenario he understands his role as 3rd PG and plays when given the minutes. Worst case scenario he disrespects people and then gets waived. It is better then burning out AJ and Jameer before playoff time. Just too bad Mike Wilks got hurt, we would not be having this discussion if so.

I would think we'd eventually use them in this order: Jameer then Marbs then AJ. This would be after he's absorbed the offense.

I'm sure if we say to him, you're our 3rd stringer, he'd say: "there are other teams that would use me as there 2nd, so why would I go there to be a 3rd".

Good Point. If he plays 2nd PG or 3rd PG its fine by me just so long as he understands he will not be starting.
