Not too sure about the details and I really don't know too much about Paul either.

So according to Woj it is a guaranteed deal. No word on terms yet.

Not so good Euroleague season for him, but it seemed to me that he wasn't highly motivated in Europe and had a lot of reserve in his performances....

Sounds as if Simmons was offered a large contract that San Antonio didn't want to deal with. Perhaps Paul is that "replacement".

Kinda looks that way. I would of been fine with just handing Simmons minutes over to White.

So from the initial bit of scouting I've done on him he looks like a more athletic Gary Neal.

My scouting consists of the 2 videos you posted.....

He can definitely shoot better than Simmons. He looks like a natural scorer. Undecided because of only these highlights about defense and taking care of the basketball. Hopefully he is better than Simmons in at least one of those.

It still feeds my theory that we wouldn't be losing a lot by letting Simmons go because there are plenty of guys around with similar games.

I think between Paul, White and whatever minutes Gay gives us on the wing we can easily replace Simmons.

none of them can defend harden or curry,Simmons is the best curry defender beside kawhi,what's is lack of strength,very slow feet on defence end,Paul is unproven,do u remember mcCallum,they are same type player but never live up potential
