Now y'all will really be gunning for the playoffs.

Is this potentially good or a bad move for Memphis?

sick_brah07 · 03-19-2012, 05:30 PM

his style of play does not suit what they need IMO

Rab · 03-19-2012, 05:31 PM

At this point, he isn't a huge risk.

freaking lakers never take any risk in their signings...Tmac/josh roberts/Nate robinson and now Arenas

FlawlessVictory · 03-19-2012, 05:37 PM

meh, I don't see what he offers to the Grizz that Mayo doesn't give them already off the bench.

But, its only on a min deal and their are some big characters like Tony Allen in that dressing room who won't let him get out of line and ruin their chemistry.

Best case scenario, I could see him going off for 15-20 off the bench in one big playoff game and frankly, for that reason alone its probably a good pickup.

Pretty harmless signing.

If he's got it, give him minutes. If he still can't do anything, waive his ass.

They got Ramon Sessions. You want Arenas over Sessions?

Problem is that tank has a hole in it.

Pretty pathetic move...give those bench keys to Mayo. Leave Arenas away from it.

And again, proof that Orlando are stupid. Idiot team.

Are you saying that they had to choose between the two? That's the only way a sentence like that makes sense.

Figlo · 03-19-2012, 06:06 PM

Not much to risk with the signing IMO, a motivated Arenas could defiantly make them deadly. But a Magic Arenas wouldn't change much they'll stay mediocre.

All tanks have holes, if they didn't how would you put the fuel, etc. inside of it?

Low tank knowledge ftl.
