I will by the end of the day if no one else does that name is perfect

You're welcome.




Please prove me wrong Gary. Prove you can play basketball better than this Gary.

honestly don't really care what Bucks fans say. I still remember Orlando fans telling us McBob was garbage yet he has turned out to be one of our most valuable role players. I have no doubts that Clifford can get a lot more out of Gary than Larry Drew ever dreamed of. I also lol @ them calling Neal a team cancer when Larry Sanders keeps having incident after incident. Shows you who is really toxic

the only reason Milwaukee even wanted to trade Neal was because he got into an argument with Sanders because he wasn't trying lol

Awesome thread title!

Show us you earn your 2.5m Gary.

6.5M

He is owed 3.25M this year and 3.25M next year. All guaranteed.

My mistake!

I thought he was 2/5m.

Thanks!

Gary Neal may be a carbon copy of Ben Gordon, but he's a high character guy, and I'm really looking forward to what he can offer Charlotte as a part of their roster. I also wonder how will he be used in the rotation, as well as Ridnour. I guess that's all a part of the things to look for in the coming weeks as he gel and create a niche for himself as a scorer that can shoot lights out. I'm going to tell you guys right now, good shot selection is not a part of Neal's DNA, but he can make tough shots without blinking, so don't start throwing shoes at your TV when he start to do what he does

I'm cool with poor man's version of Ben Gordon on our team as long as he's motivated since I felt like the actual Ben Gordon could've gave us some valuable minutes spelling Hendo average ass. I used to like when Sessions played SG next to Kemba better than Hendo so I'm sure I'll like Neal playing with Kemba better than Hendo.

Haha thanks. And h/t to Biz Gilwalker for posting it

I don't see how this makes us any better maybe it will allow us to play tolliver less

We need perimeter shooting and he provides it. Welcome aboard Neal!

2 words " perimeter shooting"

Neal makes Tolliver look like Hendo in terms of shooting. He's a cheap hired gun. Our coaching staff is a hell of a lot closer to Spurs' organization than Milwaukee's so Neal should be a nice surprise for us.

Gary Neal's Kirk Goldsberry's shot chart from last year. This year is pretty similar according to NBA.coms. I just prefer looking at these because they give more insight.

Another very good top of the arc shooter for us. I saw earlier today that Kemba and McBobs are in the top 5 of three point shooters at the top of the key. This gives us another guy there. Another guy to help our mid range shooting like Ridnour. I think his role for us could end up being that guy that plays 30 minutes because he gets hot and just rolls or he plays 10 minutes and goes 1-7 with bad shot selection, with few games in between. I really look forward to seeing how we use him and Ridnour in our second unit with Tolliver. That's a bombs away unit right there.

perfect name for the gary neal thread.

Comparing last year's Ben Gordon to this year's Gary Neal is eerily similar

Neal was playing in Milwaukee and Milwaukee sucks you cant expect him to put up good stats on that mess of a team

just watch this video of him in the Finals

That's the same thing that any proponent of Ben Gordon's could've said about him playing in Charlotte last year. I could post highlight reels of Gordon doing work in the playoffs that would shatter that Gary Neal performance. Gordon averaged 20.2 points in 29 playoff games as a Chicago Bulls player, so showing me Neal score 24 points in one game doesn't trump him

Gordon hasn't been relevant in 4+ years. Neal's Finals game was last season
