    Not a bad player, but I’m in DGAF mode after hearing the JB-to-Miami news.

    Nice Rivers replacement if we can’t re-sign him for the min.

    Fail to get your "big name pick of free agents", sign a bunch of role players one after the other to appease the fanbase to signal strength in depth

    LOL

    He isn't worth the NT-MLE, but he deserves probably half of it at best. I would rather offer him the BAE.

    Temple is a guy I really wanted at the deadline last year. Solid 3&D guy. Good energy. Hope we get him for BAE

    He’s not s bad player at 6’6”. He can shoot a bit from beyond the arc and play the point so chances are he’s get more minutes with Paul logging so little time in the court and being injury prone. He’s 32, though, and last year he started to drop off the depth chart. Could be that he never meshed with his new team after being traded, so it’s possible he gets back to shooting the ball better. Career 35% shooter on 3’s compared to Rivers at 31%.

    I guess Morey is planning Rivers replacement since he doesn’t expect him to sign for less than the MLE

    Weren't we trying to trade for him and JaMychael at the deadline before the Clips swooped in? Damn shame...we could've used him then.
