Simmons waived ! Chris Quinn signed

I guess they're really high on James Anderson as the SF backup (Simmons couldn't guard any SF anyway)

And it looks like they're not really high on Temple at all. Chris Quinn is a meh signing. Maybe Hill will be out more than we expected.

Any thoughts guys ?
Shaq on Duncan:SA won because of TD, a guy I could never break.I could talk trash to Ewing, get in D-Rob's face, get a rise out of Mourning,but when I went at Tim he’d look at me like he was bored and say:“Hey,Shaq, watch this shot right off the glass.”

Well i'm suprised that Simmons got waived but the Quinn signing makes me think Hill's injury might be more serious than we originally thought.

I also think signing Quinn could mean George Hill would be out for longer than we thought. Still, Quinn will likely last as much as Bobby Simmons. Nothing to get crazy about anyway.

I rather we sign Curtis Jerrells if a roster spot is open and PG is what we need.

Maybe Hill is taking some time off with that injury, so they get another PG.. and when Hill returns they will waive Quinn and sign Simmons again..

Maybe Simmons wasn't happy with his playing time, and they are going to use Quinn as a back uo point guard now and then use him with the Toros..

I think the first option is the most probable..

I feel the same way. Jerrells knows the system and he's a talented player.

Quinn looks like a hobbit.
