    Yeah... we don't need another shooters. I feel we are loaded with shooters at this point, we need an defensive wing.

    I wouldn't say loaded.

    Eric Gordon is the only pure shooter. Tucker is good. (CP3 was a real good shooter too.)

    House only decent.
    Gerald - serviceable streaky shooter
    Tucker - corner specialist
    Harden - decent volume shooter
    Austin - above average shooter

    Gary Clark - on the rise
    CC- not a shooter
    WB - bad shooter

    Bennett - unknown Career: 26%
    McLemore - Career: 35%
    Clemons - on hot streak but lesser competition
    Ponds, Chiozza, Vincent Edwards, Frazier - relatively unknown

    I agree CP3 was a good shooter but for whatever reason he was off in that GS series in the recent playoffs series.

    JR is not the answer, but it’s ironic Morey has not signed a great shooter during this run aside from EG especially given the amount of wings we have.

    I think you need size, he is a semi midget, and it is harder to get his shot off comfortably against bigger defenders, esp. in the playoffs.

    First Chris Paul, then Carmelo Anthony, then Austin Rivers, then Russell Westbrook.

    God, what must you continue to test me?!?

    Would be a good D’Antoni player... Can defend and shoot bulk threes. Rox would be crazy to not offer a Vet Min.

    Nothing special. Wait until teams have to have 15 max players. A couple of cheap contracts will appear. Tilman will be happy.

    I heard he's really good at golf. I was glad to hear there is a sport he's good at.

    Sign him and Shumpert and have two champions coming off the bench. Why not?
