    Great pickup: he was really really good last year at times. Is one of those guys who may have just needed a few years to get used to the speed of the league or to mature*

    *or if you want to be cynical: no ones going to who you the money till you do either. i.e. Contract year player!

    Oh geez, hope that’s not true, if so LA probably isn’t the place for him.

    we lost due to lack of (A)D. period.

    it's a low bar when the entire roster is minimums.

    Don’t see what there is to complain about here. We got a 23 year old who averaged 11.7 ppg and shot 40% from three for the VET MINIMUM. That’s darn near stealing.

    my only complaint is that it's a one-year vet min. which means if he's good, he's gone.

    Some highlights - that was quick!


    I mean, the kid shoots the 3 almost as much as Ellington and still hits so many of them. I like it.

    I think he could end up being a big pick up, Charlotte was a pretty bad situation until last year. He’s talented enough for another shot and certainly for this price.

    Seriously now, fans of other teams think that this (+Ellington) is our best signing. I mean, this kid is supremely athletic, has quick release, and is a very promising NBA player. He is worth a lot more than what we're paying him. Why did he sign for us? I'd say he needs exposure and is hoping for a good contract next year. He'll deliver for us.
