Only problem is that he wants an expanded role...what would his role even be here and would he even get minutes...I think not so this is a NO.

Are the Nuggs going to buy him out?

Anyone remember when he drilled JJ with that intentional elbow in his rookie season? Never liked the guy after that...

My only thinking is Quincy Miller and T-Rob would be an impressive haul for depth..

with a open roster spot, i'd rather go after another PG that probably get released, however is a low bust high boom move. Keep in mind T Rob(the most draft ready prospect) is going to be entering his 4-5th team since being drafted!?.............not a good indication of talent.

I wanted him bad in his draft year- hasn't seemed to get it yet, hopefully we can provide him with a home.
He does offer something we don't have a lot of when Dre's off- in that he's a banger.

Jerebko couldn't get any minutes so I doubt Robinson would be able to get any either.

T-Rob hasn't demonstrated sufficient talent to warrant an expanded role anywhere. Still, with the increased emphasis on defense, he could be a valuable piece to push guys to give constant effort. He seems like one of those dudes with dog in him (ask Jerebko) - enforcer type we've missed. I would welcome the addition and challenge him to break into the lineup.

Yes, please!
Get him on a cheap contract and see what he can offer.

He's looking for playing time, and he's not going to find much of it here this season barring injuries.
I'd like to add him too, just to see what we can do with him, but I don't see it happening this season.

We're in no-mans land trying to lure post-trade cuts in that all the good vets will look to true contenders/lock playoff teams and all the young guys cut in roster crunches will look to latch on to bad teams that offer the best chance for playing time.

I wouldn't be opposed to T-Rob, but I don't see where he fits. Tolliver will see the lion's share of backup minutes at the 4 due to his shooting range. T-Rob's most notable skill is rebounding, which isn't something we're in dire need of.
And if he wants an expanded role, he certainly isn't going to find here or on any other team that's still in the playoff picture. He has a very limited skill set.

TROB is a high energy player, he reminds me of Joel anthony with a little offense.

No! Not a good idea.
He's still looking to get his as opposed to finding his niche role and excelling at that.
I think he can be a good NBA player in the right role (look at Kris Humphries and fringe guys like that) but until Robinson is willing to put his ego aside and stick to what he does best he'll float around and not do much.
That said the team that actually gets him to focus on boards and D will get a decent role player - but he's gotta get his head right

Probably signs with Miami as they have PF minutes with Bosh lost for the season - can split minutes with Haslem.

That would definitely make an ideal set-up for him. Lots of available minutes with Bosh and McBob out for the season.

Undersized with problems scoring around the basket. He wouldn't sign/play here though I wouldn't mind it.
