Seems like you're the only Jazz fan who cared about the signing. ;)

Now Ronnie gets to compete with Nolan Smith for the backup point job behind Lillard.

You're going to love him, then you're going to hate him, then you're gonna love him again just to hate him the next game and finally you're gonna love him as long as he's on the bench. Nice guy, high character, extremely professional.

Ronnie Price is the perfect 3rd point guard. When guys are dogging it or playing like garbage, he's a burst of energy that will come in and change the complexion of 4-5 games per year. The rest of the time, he's not worth much (in fact, he can be downright awful sometimes), but you're only paying him the minimum, so...

He'll make a 20 point deficit into a 10 point deficit...... The end result is still the same, it's an L......

What are the chances that a team in the NBA would have 2 PGs from small (in terms of sports) Utah schools, UVSC (at the time) and Weber State. That's pretty damn cool.

And they are going to play on the same team. The fact that Lillard is on the Blazers is a big factor in the Price signing because of their close friendship. And besides, we needed to have a guy who knows he's not going to get many minutes and is okay with it.
