    Aren't Flip and Mike James one and the same?

    He is more of a two guard, better moves than Mike James

    We could use a gunner off the bench but yesh, his shooting percentages are pretty lousy. Pass.

    Mike James is a lot better than Murray. Murray is a streaky one-dimensional bench player.

    yeah they are pretty close except mike james can shoot and pass. and mike james actually helps his team. they are both black and over 6 feet tall. i think thats a good comparison.

    Definitly pass. The guy is an amazing scorer but needs a lot of shots to do it. If you watch any games with him, when he comes off the bench he looks to get as many shots off as he can...definitley doesn't pass at all.

    I would pass too...Only time I had use for him was on my fantasy squad 3 years back I think when Ray Allen went out. Flip came in a scored a bunch of points, but lowered my cumulative field goal percentage!

    I'd take him if they throw in Evans for an expiring.

    Flip no. We should get Nick Collison from them.
