he's kinda strong and an ok defender and rebounder, but he can't shoot very well or create off the dribble

Very inconsistent, okay for a 11th man. Poor defender, weak shooter. Shouldn't get real minutes.

I don't know the guy, but he seems like he would be good as one of those chemistry/glue guys. Maybe a vet that can teach some of the ins and outs of the game, but don't expect much production wise. He know his limitations better than Pavlovic, though, so there's that.

Adequate bench player (not a top rotation guy though) ... he doesn't try to play beyond his ability which is good.

Well.....he did have that one dunk, and a game winning tip-in to start off the season, but other than that he should be deep on the bench of any team.

Whenever he had a good game, the Wolves would win. The wolves won 15 games.

Remember when he hit that buzzer beater in last season's opener?

That is the one thing I remember about his year with the Timberwolves.

That was back when we had a better record than the Cavaliers.
