    As great as a value signing Luah Mbah A Moute and a excellent pick up Melo would be, our bench looks pretty shallow with only Gordon and Nene able to score. I know there will be staggering, but the Cavs have taught me you need off the pine even with 3 All-Stars against the Warriors.

    The cavs have guys that can score on their own off the bench? Actually they have guys that can't really defend on their bench

    What a great off season. Morey is really doing a great job solidifying the bench.

    So because he was a bad starter for the Clippers, we should avoid signing him to be a bench player?

    I like this signing a lot because it's cheap, we need depth, we need defensive-stoppers, and he can hit the 3. What more do you really want? And for the record, I liked the PJ Tucker signing just as much.

    He wasn't a bad starter for the clippers. He's
    Not an offensive weapon and the clippers have needed that. Also, this was his first year starting for the clippers wasn't it? Took s big step forward. The clippers were basically done before the season started

    Good signing. Now we still need a veteran combo guard. Not sold on Taylor yet.

    Chris Paul gets the job done again. Convincing Tucker first, and now Luc too.

    And 46% from left corner. He will be a good fit

    Yeah I agree completely. I think he'll be perfect fit for that 15-20 mpg role

    I want consistency from Clutchfans. That PJ tucker thread was a disaster and I walk in to this thread like this was the best signing of the off-season.

    Took only 110 threes the whole year though. Harden or Gordon attempt more than that in one month.

    I like this signing a lot. Most of us already know he has been a stud defensively, but I see some promising offensive things in his game from the spot shooting to the ability to attack the rim a little bit if given a lane. He won't be called upon to score much and shouldn't, but at least he can a little if he has to. Has he kind of turned himself into a poor man's Battier aka "the no stats all star" ?
