I though he was good?

[PizzamanIRL]

Another one bites the dust

[Black and White]

Back to the pacers?

[outbreak]

what's he being waived for? He's a pretty adequate guard

[iTare]

Going to L.A.

Tanking for Wiggins.

They need to clear a roster spot for the Gay trade.

Omg come to the Lakers

[Twiens]

Omg come to the Lakers

He'd be the 4th stringer if Nash/Farmar/Blake are all healthy enough to play..

He will be our starting PG.... trust me.

[kamil]

He will be our starting PG.... trust me.

Replacing Kobe, right?

He's awful...trust me

"Adequate" is a pretty generous word for him. He's below average even for a backup.

[Levity]

haha these people who are asking, "why did this happen" "can our team sign him" have obviously not watched him play this season. but i honestly cant blame them for that, but only because i dont think hes played 1 minute this season. then again, maybe he has.

but it just goes to show you that if he cant get back up minutes on a team with no back up PG, then maybe your burning desire for him isnt as warranted as you think

he was pretty bad for the pacers last year. but played decent with the cats. but thats cause they really had no one else at the time.

[InspiredLebowski]

Back to the pacers?lol. no. DJ's terrible. feel for him and all, but he's not an NBA player. guy's probably kicking himself for turning down Charlotte's extension.

[Teanett]

knicks baby!
he's better than felton.

[Black and White]

How about Lowry then?

[alenleomessi]

he could always become the gary payton of euroleague

[InspiredLebowski]

How about Lowry then?sure, if there was a move that made financial sense for either side

[Heavincent]

He would be a nice addition to the Knicks collection of players nobody else wanted. And I mean that in a bad way. Not in the 1970's Oakland Raiders type of way.

[Black and White]

sure, if there was a move that made financial sense for either side

Just feel like thats a piece or something they need, the Pacers are my pick to win it all, just need one point guard to bring it all together or something.

[no pun intended]

Didn't have the slightest idea that the Raptors had him in the first place.

[Bobby13]

He had a guard skills camp planned with Lowry for February
Don't think Lowry will be there for the camp either :oldlol:
Get err done Messiah :bowdown:

[veilside23]

wolves barea is not as good as he was :(

[Genaro]

Can Lakers give him 10 day contracts until Farmar comes back?
I have no hope for Nash coming back and being relevant.

[AirTupac]

Why would the Lakers take him when Blake and Farmar are vastly superior. Kobe can try and fulfil any PG duties (him and Blake) until Farmar and Nash come back.

Farmars out for a while and Nash is done..

Cant hurt if its for cheap

still really dont need him since kobe can be a play maker when needed. just need someone to guard the other teams bench PGs. either henry or meeks will do. really no need for dj at all.

[Nash]

knicks

How much was he offered?

Maybe he'll go to the Bucks.

[Burgz V2]

I though he was good?

he's awful

for a pg who is supposed to stretch the floor he couldnt make a gd shot to save his life

that and the fact that he cant guard anyone who weighs more than a shopping cart, and you have a HORRIBLE back up pg

would rather tank with Buycks and Stone, at least they play hard. I can watch these guys fight for scraps all day like they did in LA

[Legends66NBA7]

Was the most logical move in terms of our PG situation.

I'm assuming the rest of the starters are next.

He just might

why? cause who knows what the fck the bucks are doing.

At least we're not the Bucks.

farmar is out for 4-6weeks
Nash has 1 leg in his retirement house
Blake has right shoulder injury

he can help even if it is for a month

[rknine15]

coming to the wiz.... called it
