Hoping we make a consolidation trade, address enough issues to where we have a spot to give him a partial or non guaranteed deal. Don't think teams are wanting to lock up roster spots on guys like him until post trade deadline and buyout flurry.
yeah, i'm starting to wonder if we all got over excited about him, too. maybe the truth is simply that nobody thinks he's that good, including us. i liked him on the two-way, but we didn't even really give him a shot when we had guys injured (conversely, koloko has gotten real burn on several occasions). i still think he can play, though, so maybe we do have a long-term plan there.
My concern/complaint is: 1) he can play and we let him walk while retaining position overlap. 2) we are supposed to be fostering this new development program. For who? Outside of Max, our young guys are old "young" players. If that's not just a b******* line, we have to start keeping some of these guys around and developing them and KEEPING them (not buying them a 1st class ticket to Memphis). Another possibility, i guess: we get rid of some of the center dead weight, promote Koloko to a regular roster spot and give Quincy his 2-way back
the real question is what were the offers he turned down to come back here? just other g league offers? or did he turn down a two-way somewhere? knowing that would help me understand what's happening. though i still can't quite figure out how traore (who i like!) was retained over quincy.
We tend to got overhyped, over some marginal talent all the time. I don't think Quincy was viewed to be as valuable, around the League, as a lot of folks thought.
