Huge. Bi-annual exception signing.

Good signing. Although a bit reserved atm because of his mileage

Can't think of anyone to compare him with previously. Rick Fox?

Great signing. Baynes or Ibaka with the MLE and I'd freak with excitement.

A little old for me, but a quality signing nonetheless. He is basically a smaller Danny Green, which is the type of player we need and have a ton of playoff experience and a better jump shot. Good start, seems like FO does have a plan to attack this FA.

Solid move.
Good, but not great D.
Isn't selfish.
Will bring some of the intangibles that Green brought.

He was on my wishlist. Good job.

Old at 34?? Did y'all expect we can sign any decent young player using the BAE? This is a very good signing!

Is this a good player?

He provides 3PT shooting. He’ll shoot something like 39% from three, 38% career. Last year 36%. With this team, he’ll get open looks.

Let’s go Wes, let’s go Lakers! You’re gonna love the guy.

^really? Didn't this player hurt his Achilles or something ?

He can train King Kuzma a thing or two.

good back up

You all forgetting he will be a bench warmer, he isn't going to be starter - doubt he'll get a tone of minutes with the lineup we're getting - so you all need to chill

good signing;)

THT starts.

A little small for his position but he's a great one on one defender. When Matthews was guarding LeBron, Matthews did an amazing job guarding LBJ. I have a feeling he'll do what Danny was suppose to do better.

Great signing by Rob Pelinka. Dude is killing it.

5 years past his prime
doubt he gets over 100 made 3 pters for us next season. everyone loves the carushow and talen horten tucker is going to step up next year imo. always a fan of iowa state guys. they develop solid role players imo.

Is he better than Green?
