It may have been the video (or maybe I have just become Curry'd about 3's), but his release looks slow. Shouldn't matter as long as James is drawing 2 defenders :grin:
Maybe he will be able to stay healthy with us since we wont be asking him to do a lot of the heavy lifting like he was trying to do when he was on that big contract and a franchise player (having to break his defender down to get his shot off and create for others). Just move through the offense and let James and others find you and shoot that thang. Drive every now and then to keep the D honest. Sounds a lot less demanding too me.

It's a three guard rotation which could provide 30 minutes a night. There will still need to be 4th guard to provide spot duty IMO.
What I really like about this signing is that he's insurance in case Harden gets injured (if he isn't injured, too).
