Its a weak FA class for SFs this season. So unfortunately, Wright might be one of our better options. I'd like him if signed to a reasonable 2 year deal - 3 years max.

He's a role player at this moment. I don't view him as a guy who helps us as a starting small forward. I'd just rather role with Singler unless we get a significant upgrade.

Wright has been a passable 3 & D player in the past. He could provide solid utility if placed in the proper situation.

He's probably better than any other small forward currently on the roster, but that isn't saying much of anything.

Wrong. He has been a passable 3 & no D.

I guess he is passable. Comparing him to his teammates let's say he is better than Nick Young who is a liability on defense and worse than Evan Turner who is a decent defender.

I would be willing to take him as a backup. Two to three years sounds about right!

I'd give more playing time to Middleton instead of signing Dorell Wright.

I like him, but i'm not sure if he's that much better than the Singler/Middleton combo.
at this stage i'd like to give those guys a chance to prove themselves and develop

I like dorrell Wright but nothing more than a 3rd signing behind 2 better players.


I swear if he or Corey Brewer are our # 1 or #2 FA signings this year i might have to consider a B team.

A two year deal makes no sense whatsoever. If we signed him it would be due to no big names taking our money. If that's the case we should maintain optimum cap room for 2014, not sign a bunch of near 30 role players to near MLE deals.
