I didn't even watch the game, but I knew when I checked the stats in the third quarter that Dinwiddie was going to hit the game winner. I promise you i said that to myself
You need 2-way wings, 2-way shooting bigs, and you can't allow low iq players on the court. Assist/turnover ratio is crucial. Shooting point guards are icing on the cake IF they are plus defenders.
Weaver & Casey, govern yourselves accordingly!

That was funny though the way Dinwiddie, Who was SVGs first pick here just spanked his ass on our court with a beautiful clutch game winner on top of it.

Dinwiddie for Cameron Bairstow was SVG's worst trade to date.

But in fairness, I'm not sure we can even say he "lost" that trade. Chicago waived Spencer before he ever played a regular season game for them.

Yeah I was just wondering Why Chicago didn't even play him

Brooklyn wasn't even planning on using him as more than a 3rd PG this season. But serious injuries to Lin and Russell gave him the opportunity. Credit to Spencer for taking and running with the opportunity.

He arrived in Detroit injured and never was quite right here. His jumper was even more broke than Stanley's is.

Yeah I mean he's definitely becoming what I felt his ultimate ceiling was. He's almost reminding me of Billups with how calm he stays in clutch time without error with the ball in his hands.

Gotta remember also, Dinwiddie was considered a late lotto pick to some before getting injured and dropping to the 2nd round.

Actually same goes for Middleton, Franchise is always in a rush to nowhere

No doubt, I feel you.

I was pretty excited with the pick at the time. Especially since thanks to Karen Davidson Pistons didn't have a 1st in that draft, so I was quite happy with the perceived value Dinwiddie provided at that pick.

Due to the injury or whatever, it just never worked out for Spencer in Detroit. Sometimes, guys just need a change and the right set of circumstances to fall in their favor in order to develop. Look at Oladipo, he was viewed as big disappointment and given up by 2 different teams in 2 years, now he's looking to be a legit star in Indiana.

Such a liberal behaviour.

And I'm not even a fan of republicans. Actually I use to vote for left wing parties in Italy.
