    Nailed it. Huertas is pretty good Calderon insurance.

    I like unselfish players. We need a lot of them. Someone who plays his role and a good influence on young kids.

    I like keeping Huertas as the third PG.

    I was referring to a future trade as an asset. To what are you referring sir?

    What's a Chamorro? Sounds like something new at Taco Bell. No offense to anyone if it's not something new at Taco Bell. :Crazyartest:

    I'm not sure what he brings that justifies playing time over Calderon honestly.

    With Russell hopefully playing more minutes, there will be no playing time available.

    Like Huertas, good third string guy to have in case of injury who can actually contribute.

    He's a dude who sits on the bench, works in practice, and can step in if there's an injury. Hard to hate the move.

    Screw being bad on defence and not being able to shoot from distance. I love watching the dude play the game and zip the ball around with all his trick s***.

    There were worse 3rd stringers out there and like others have said he brings some positivity to the game.

    Plus while Calderon played 72 games last year, he's a guy who almost always tweaks something. Having Calderon insurance is a good move.

    Glad he is back as an insurance policy. Plus with his age another good teammate to help guide our youth.

    the term "infectious passing" comes to mind. hopefully it rubs off on the rest of the team

    The combo of Calderon/Huertas/D-Lo + Mozgov/Black/Zubac makes me think we'll be running the PnR efficiently, at least during practice
