I like the way he's been playing, but given his record the preceding 5 years in the NBA, it's likely he's on a hot streak and will soon revert to the mean. I hope not -- it would be wonderful if the team could get lucky and stumble into a real gem -- but it's more likely than not that what we're seeing is basically a fluke.

I don't think Temple is a full time, starting-caliber player. But I definitely think he is worth more than the vet minimum. He was pretty solid for us last year as well - good enough to be a $3-4M per year 18 mpg reserve.


Problem is, he often goes weeks without his shot finding the hoop. When he's bad, he's monumentally suck - almost unplayable- for long stretches.

Having said that, I love the guy, and sincerely hope he keeps up this confident play.


*Bump* for the reality check.

As proprietor of the Garrett Temple shrine, I must alert all that unless his game drastically improves and improves quickly, management will have close down the business. Sorry Garrett.
