Damn, I would rather have signed Robinson than Farmar.

No way Robinson signs for the Vet. Min.

I bet he won't even sign for the MMLE with anyone.

I rather have Farmer to be honest. I like Nate though, but its obviously a reason teams arent lining up to sign him.

Nate Robinson is looking for a legit payday after last years amazing performance with the Bulls.

He's got to insure the rest of his future as he's nearing 30

If he's still available later for the vet min, doubt he is now, you sign him up, and make sure to just package Blake off somewhere or move Meeks for a second rounder. Farmars defensive metrics at the 2 were better than his at pg anyhow in NJ

Nash (24) / Nate (20) / Blake(4)
Blake (16) / Farmar (24) / Young (8)
Kobe (32) / Young (16)
Hill (20 / Kenyon or LO (24) / Pau (4)
Pau (24) / Kaman (24)

He wants years and/or money. Can't blame a guy for wanting years though after so many one yr deals

He is one of the most frustrating players for me to figure out.
He shows signs and flashes of brilliance but as a PG, you can't trust him to run the team.
You can't trust that he will make the right decisions.
He is fun to watch, has heart and is not afraid to penetrate, but then pulls up for a 3 on a fast break.
He would be a decent back up, but he has a lot of growing up to do before he become an impact player on a contending team.

Only 24 minutes for Pau? Blake and Kobe guarding the wings? Do you want to get completely slaughtered on defense?

can't afford him so i'm not shocked.

28 mins of Pau, 4 mins at PF, where hes a weak link. Pau's minutes are on line with Tim and KG.

Blake will play the 2 and with Nash, its Dantoni. The again Brown had a hard on for Blake at 2 next to Sessions as well. IT's just a fact at this point. Kobe and Nikc have no choice but to guard the wing, and no CDR changes that. Likewise a Ronnie Brewer or Johnson ain't getting when they male Metta look like prime Kerr. Farmar's sg metrics also suggest he will defend the 2 some.

And besides **** it we seem to get that we need multiple gaurds to get back on D and spread the floor with balance to defend leaks. Might as well shoot teams out the place

more guards?

Pretty sure us no longer being interested is a direct result of bringing in more guards. So no, no more guards.

I know what our FO is doing now, we're collecting undersized shooting guards that cant play D.

We already have too many guards. No need for Nate.

i think we will only do this if we are moving blake / meeks ...

Nate's pretty good. He'd be quite a different look than Nash.

I don't mind signing him for vet min. There is never enough guards for MDA anyway.

I think Robinson is going to cost more than the minimum.

should have signed nate earlier. hes playoff tested and doesnt back down from anybody.
