    It's possible we're just farming young, healthy hamstrings.

    really one of the craziest things ever. i believe still the most 3's he's ever made in a game, most steals, and maybe assists. pretty sure it was his highest game score by a decent margin. and against the miami heat no less.

    We could have done worse. I don't know how. But I'm sure one of you will help me out.

    And give Chris Paul all your hamstrings.

    We got younger. We need a little youth for the 82 game grind.

    Idk why everyone hates on him... He’s a talented player and still young. He still has the potential to be a rotation guy...

    Kinda reminds me of Livingston, who also can't shoot.

    Livingston averaged 6/2/2 in 16 minutes per game last year with GS. Not saying I want MCW to be playing that many minutes, but if he can be a pest and get a block or steal or two to give Harden and Paul some much needed bench time, I'm all for it.

    yeah.
    Instead of one year we could have signed him for two.

    Good point. If this guy can play a Livingston like role effectively then this is a good signing. The dude shouldn't even attempt threes.

    This isn't true. Livingston shoots great, just not outside the paint.

    MCW isn't even a great shooter by the basket. Bro bricks layups.

    Well that certainly explains signing our 33-year-old PG to a 4-year $160M contract.

    TRUST THE NEW MATH PROCESS!

    Not bad for a fourth guard. Last year we had Weber, Brown (x2) and Jackson (x2) in that spot. Clearly an upgrade.
