yes or no

if the heat release arroyo who thinks he would be a good fit as a backup here?

i vote yes, but at this point i think we absolutely need a backup point, and carlos is likely as good as anyone we would be able to get

Why not? But truthfully I think if Danny and Doc really thought that the backup point was an issue they'd bring in Tyronn Lue from behind the bench. I find it hard to believe he is content back there.

I'd love to have him but I have a sneaking suspicion that it may be in the minority here, since that was the reaction when I brought his name up the past 2 off-seasons.

Can drive to the basket and shoot the long ball. Has more experience and savvy than Hudson. I'm all for him giving us a good 10 minutes off the bench.

at this point might as well bring in Lue at least he knows the system...great cap circumvention there by the way...Arroyo is no better at this point in his career.

No point in doing anything now. Carlos is only a marginal improvement over what we have now, there may be someone better down the road

Beat me to it....been thinking of posting this all day....but kinda fearful of being strung up by the balls by all the celtic 'experts' here (serioulsy guys....u can be nasty, lol)....

I like him, saw him Vs someone...cant recall who....and he started in place of chlamers I think and looked good....like a real steady vet...some nice transition play....from memory his defence was a lil pedestrian...but in a team system that can be covered perhaps...

Im in the YES camp! (maybe......)

Who else may shake free come all star weekend?

i think it would be a better idea to wait patiently and see if we can get someone better later in the season

Is he better than anyone we would have to cut to sign him? I don't think so really.

Yes, he can score, but cannot play defense. I would rather give Hudson a chance.
