    JET may or may not be coming back, but MT does not necessarily make JET redundant.

    Unless you consider Jet our backup pg he does. That would be a fail off season if that happens.

    I'm very happy with this move. Min deal for another person that can create his shot. He might not be as clutch as Terry from 3 but we know he can score from all over.

    I like it, adds some scoring off the bench.

    Beverley/Thornton
    Harden/Brewer
    Ariza/Dekker
    DMo/Jones
    Howard/Capela

    I like the signing for minimum. Low risk, high potential reward. So what does this mean for the KJ Mcdaniels, Josh Smith, and Jason Terry situation? Does this negate our need for the Jet? If we don't use the MLE on Josh Smith, how much does this leave us in cap space? Can someone break this down for us?
