    Had a matter of fact/sarcastic tone in my head when I was typing it. Kind of like , "You know I got a feeling that Lebron guy is gonna be pretty good." lol. But yeah, I agree with you.

    PJ Tucker's defense is overrated. Right @TheAce?

    Watching vids like these just make wish the season would start already. But seriously, Tucker is a beast at attacking that ball. Hope his hammy gets well soon and all.

    He's a creator too which really excites me. He'll make some plays when Paul and Harden never touch the ball. He's obviously not going to do it all the time, but he's going to give us a lot that we needed.

    Not to be a downer here (I'm a PJ Tucker supporter), but that vid shows his highlights back in 14-15. How good is he now? Has age taken a toll on his game and effectiveness at this point?

    his age has allowed him to realize what his true role is on a team that actually produces wins. and thats an energy guy who plays defense and become respectable enough to knock down open shots playing off guys who get so much attention

    He looks like he is on the Chuck Hayes meal plan. Let's not forget: the fatter Chuck got, the better his defense.

    Why are you showing videos when he was younger age 28-29? He's past his prime and 32.5 years old now where are his current highlights?

    I was hoping that recent pic of tucker and Morey earlier in this thread was just a matter of poor lighting and camera angle. He didn't look ready in that pic...

    Remember when Hakeem was 32.5 and past his prime? Hint, it's in your photo smart guy.

    PJ is coming into his own right now. He's joining us at exactly the right time.

    This one is cool. It starts out with them down 14 in the 4th quarter. He's a difference maker.



    6 points 2/2 from 3point land, 2 rebounds, closes out 2 shooters that were not his man, guards Jimmy Butler, prevents a game winning shot from happening by Butler, plays switching defense several times, guards Butler the AllStar on like 9 straight possessions... I think he's still fresh

    Toronto Raptors bench improved significantly with Tucker's addition.
