He was a good locker room guy and seemed to get along well with everyone. Plus he played hard and could shoot the three.

Great veteran signing. He was a fan favorite when he was here, and will definitely be again.

From a youth movement perspective, it doesn't bode well for Ellenson. But, I'm not too high on him.

Love it. He was very good for us, especially in the lockerroom, when he was here.

Arg - looks like we MIGHT play 1 young guy this season.

He's a hustle 3 & D guy and I've always liked him so I am also quite happy about this. If this is our final roster it looks like Ellenson will be riding the pine, which I'm personally okay with since I don't think hes that great of a prospect. Leuer and Tolliver should at least be able to play decent defense at the 4 along Dre, which we desperately need. Aside from Kennard, I believe all of acquisitions this offseason can both shoot the 3 and defend. That is definitely a good sign. Unfortunately, all but Bradley are fringe role players. We need a legit starting PF first and foremost still and perhaps an upgrade over RJ. I'm okay giving Dre another year to see if he bounces back because he possesses essential skills that no one else on our roster has. Right now we are a 5-8 seed. We need to make another splash, maybe two, if we want to get into the top 4.
