Andre Miller TPE used for this trade?

Still have $2 million left from the Ariza TPE

Might as well start it.

Good signing. Wanted him to be signed a few years back. He put up solid career numbers.

Grain of salt: media folks love Dudley, since he's such a good quote.

I like it- whatever team he's been with, I always start out focusing on some other player like Giannis or Larry Sanders, and end up watching him make good plays.

From the numbers, looks like he's got that long two down- Randy Wittman must be somewhere doing cartwheels.

Typical meh EG move. At least it doesn't cut into FA next year. I would have rather tried and gotten Joe Johnson (via a Nene+Webster+Blair deal), but I understand that Ted refuses to pay the luxury tax. At least Otto starts next year for sure.

Low expectations

Boom! Pierce's production is replaced, and we still have the MLE for a big. Nicely done.

Thumbs up. Outside of his one season with the Clips he's been a solid role player, and there's not much risk or cost involved.

Pierce is 4x the player Dudley is. He could score in the low block, and his rebounding was HUGE in the playoffs (had some critical rebounds against Atlanta). Dudley can't rebound. He's strictly a role player. I think he replaces Rasual Butler's production last year frankly. We won't be able to replace Pierce.

Merging duplicate threads. Congrats to FAH for getting his up first!

Dudleys an awesome 3 and D wing. I know he's not as exciting as Pierce or Ariza, but he'll help us a lot

Great move, dudley is a solid replacement for paul pierce that doesn't cut into the cap next year. He also plays much better defense than Paul. He seems like a solid locker room presence too. Excited to see him on the court with Wall and Beal.

Really good point Lyrical... And he doesn't mind coming off the bench, plays both the 2&3. I like it... but only if he does get that stretch 4.

He plays the 3 and 4. I don't know how much he was used at the 2, but I'd imagine very little. Seems like the perfect stretch 4.

Really solid move and allows us to use the MLE on best available player rather than focusing on a "must have position. Would love to see the MLE used on Biyombo or Stuckey in that order.
