Hart and Mikal are both really more SF's anyway.

cause he's a rican guy too?

Middleton can still play but we do need a C. Really was hoping KP wouldve been that buyout guy. C market seems much more limited.

Looks like we got a new fan favorite!!!

interesting, we are definitly in the buyout market now. I wonder who shakes loose.

Middleton is an interesting one but would love to get an insurance big.

I am really excited about this trade. Our offense gets Soo much better with extra possessions. That's why offensive rebounding is key for us. Well, Jose gets steals!!🌶️🌶️🌶️

I have mixed feelings

I love his energy and also think Leon et al. have a good read on things. He could be very good situationally.

that said, I am worried about a smaller guard when you look at the Pistons' guards, SA and OKC.

i mean he's a situational player. lets put it this way, we probably beat IND and don't collapse game 1 last year if we had him. Deuce & Brunson cannot handle backcourt pressure too well.

He scores just as much as clarkson but is a better shooter and defender. Wonder if Clarkson gets waived?
Nalod @ 2/5/2026 2:41 PM
Good addition. Not sure if he has a lot of DNP's or injuries to why he misses so many games per season.
Low price, good financial flex, seems like a solid move.
Becareful to not become too enamored by the video highlights.
Well, now we also know why Deuce was not traded. Seems wierd the injury comes up this week? Was there a physical as a prerequisite to a deal???

My one concern is that we overvalued him because the way he has played against us, i.e., a team w a small back court and where his foot speed helps stay in front of our guys. But Cade, Shai, Castle he'll be a liability.

I'm hoping that his situations will be more like being a full court pest against those guys to tire them down, chew up some clock. Microwave but on defense.
