There aren't very many options out there, so i'm cool with it.

Always liked him. I think he can still give some solid minutes and Doc should have no problem motivating him.

I think he is a solid alternative for times when Rivers doesn't play well. He could also provide instant offense when Crawford is injured or off his game. I just hope he doesn't shoot too much!

Decent 10-Day But Not Exactly Game-Changer

Robinson is a decent 10-Day signing, as is Hamilton, given the noncommittal nature of such signings, but you got to believe that Robinson looks to eventually be here for the rest of the season with Hamilton also likely to be so as well given the lack of available options.

Again while not necessarily bad additions, both of these players along with Dhantay Jones and Austin Rivers are fairly disappointing acquisitions given Doc's strategy of pursuing the buyout or trade routes to add an impact player for the postseason run. Instead of KG, Ray Allen, Emeka Okafor, Wilson Chandler, and the like we were also treated to CDR and Ekpe Udoh, who hasn't been getting much playing time either.

Doc's inflated sense of self and ego, not only hurts us with his cluelessness as a personnel manager but also his overconfidence as a recruiter only reinforces his incompetence with regard to squandering valuable assets. In any case, this is what we got so it's up to him to make it work since he is solely responsible for the roster....there ain't no Ainge to blame here.

Doesn't hurt to get another scorer coming off the bench

We just bought another version of Crawful. It's basically going to be as though Jamal is playing 48 minutes a game now. Unless Nate is 6ft 7in and can play defense, all he can do is take minutes away from JJ, Jamal & Rivers.

We need a defensive guard. Yet again Doc goes for offense instead.

He was brought in on a 10-day contract while Jamal is out. Our bench has no offense without Jamal. He's hoping Nate can fill that void. We need offense right now.

If he stays longer, Jamal and Nate will actually be playing most of their minutes together, so not much harm there

I thought Crawford's injury was a calf contusion. Isn't this a very minor injury? I would think he would be back very soon

actually, I don't know why Chicago didn't sign him- he played well in their season two seasons ago

everything i'd heard was he's not the same player after his major injury.

and to me a nate robinson without explosion is something that this team definitely doesn't need.

Do you mean less minutes for Rivers or having Jamal move more of his minutes to the 3? I prefer Rivers over Nate simply for defensive reasons. I hope Hamilton doesn't get his minutes take away because of this move.
