    Of all of the point guards that were traded today, he's the 2nd best of them (in terms of rpm). 1st would be Isaiah Thomas. The others, including notables Reggie Jackson, Brandon Knight, and MCW, all had negative rpms. Not to mention Goran Dragic (SG) has a negative rpm right now. That deal will do.

    Actually from Sixers fan..he came out strong at the beginning but hit a wall midseason and still in rut offensively. A lot of potential though so their is that.

    Not even 3 full years in the league, much less mileage than someone typically would have at his age. He's probably more like 33 in NBA years.

    So much whining. Prigioni can play. He's a better ballhandler and shooter than any other PG on our roster. Bringing him off the bench should definitely help when Harden sits; he ought to be able to run an offense much better than Terry, and he gives us more depth in case of injury at our weakest position.

    Silly. Ambitious moves in late February are counter-productive to a team trying to contend.

    More like Argentinian-Italian Steve Blake. Not sure why everyone goes with the Italian angle when he has been a mainstay for Argentina since I can remember. Him, Luis, and Manu dominate international ball.

    Nothing changes the fact that the team only contends with a healthy Dwight. Until we know where he's at, we have to wait.

    Because he needs to trade Shved today otherwise he will become a 100% total deadweight of 3 mils plus.

    At least Prigioni will be able to pass the ball to D-Mo early in the offense. He has years of experience feeding Scola in the post for Argentina. It's painful watching Beverley trying to get the ball to D-Mo.

    Lmao I'm willing to bet my left nut that Prigioni has been playing professional euro ball since he was a pree-teen.

    Still confused y would DM make this trade... Why wasted 2 of 2nd Round? Even those are late 2nd rounds, still value more than this 38 yrs old scrub.
