PJ TUCKER A ROCKET

I'm only implying that if Toronto is looking to add flexibility, they'd maybe S&T Tucker.

 

great signing! i hope this means no shumpert

 

so tucker is guarding people ranging from chris paul to demarcus cousins and al jefferson?

and people still don't like the pickup???

dude is about to unlock dad strength too.

 

Like the move. As of right now the roster is better than last year And there are plenty of cheap vets like Afflalo to fill it out.

Please Morey add Melo and then we are a serious contender.

 

Tucker will be very helpful in the playoffs when you have to guard Kashi, Durant, and Paul George.

 

this has to be one of the worst posts i think i've ever seen on CF

 

They have his bird rights, they don't need cap space to resign him.

 

Good video but I still do not think he is as cerebral as Battier or Draymond Green.

 

i'd agree. different players tho. i've never seen battier guard a center.

i actually think we like tucker to defend draymond. if you can shut down his offensive production (facilitating) it can make the warriors go stagnant and more isos.

 

also saw on RW they wanted to extend someone (DeRozan?)

 

Admittedly I only knew him as a pest to Harden.

I thought he was out of the league until I saw he was a small success with the Raptors. Good for him and us I guess.

I want to see him keep that stifling Defense up for at least 30 minutes a game.

Also we have to get shooters.... Gordon alone won't be enough.

Watching Ariza building a brickhouse aint pretty.

 

They already extended him last summer. I think they might just want to lower their salary, especially if they plan to keep Patterson, nothing more.

 

Does this suggest that CP is leaning toward staying in Houston longer term? I mean, PJ agreed to take a discount on a 3-4 year contract to play with CP and all.

But then again, ask DeAndre Jordan...

 

They can still add Gibson if he wants to come here.

 

I think this is a great signing. Tucker fits in perfectly with what we want to do and we badly needed toughness and rebounding on this team. He'll do the dirty work for us. We were so soft last year. If we somehow convince Millsap and Atlanta to do a SnT with us we'd have ridiculously strong defensive frontline.

If we used the MLE for Tucker, does that mean Melo would have to settle for the BAE if bought out by NY? He'd probably rather just go to Cleveland in that case? And does it mean that Nene will likely go since we can no longer off that fourth year?

 

He has signed with Minnesota. 2 yrs/ 28 M.

 

What???? That's absurd for a role player PF who can't rebound

 

Pumped about this signing. Tucker and Trevor with Chris Paul.. should be solid. Also, this move is going to keep Ariza fresher all year. I bet his 3 point percentage will go up with having his legs saved.

 

Love the Tucker signing - wanted the Rox to acquire him for years now. He fits a different role on the court than PatBev but he is similar in his that never say die, "junkyard-dogness". From what I hear he is a solid locker room vet guy as well. Probably one of the few acquisitions you could have made in this year's FA pool where you acquire defense, rebounding, and locker room leadership. Nice signing and way better option that Shumpert.
