    I just posted that to see if anybody remembered him. He had a pretty good college career playing with Michael Redd.

    He adds that grit this team needs.

    He can play small forward. I think he.is a very good bench for cp3, harden and Gordon position. Clippers like to use 3 guards to play. He is an excellent sign by Morey. It doesn't need to think to sign him. He is our final perfect puzzle to replace cp3 for last year warriors game 7 match. For knight and other unusable players. I suggest to put them in G league for next season usage

    He sometimes works the table at conventions that hands out scones and pens. Likely got the nick doing a gig in London. For a moment, I thought the image of the cat was an old one of Sean Penn trying out for Robert Downey's role in Tropic Thunder. I'm glad a couple of guys were on top of things and cleared that up for us.

    Yeah, but it's BEAUTIFUL when it goes in. Especially in crunch time

    its hard for me to even root for him when i notice he is about to take a 30 footer... not even steph is taking shots that difficult that often...I admire dantoni for having the nerve not to tell him to stop with the nonsense

    It looks like Boston features this as part of their sponsored content on their webpage, Houston posts the postgame interview videos

    Yes, for sure, (PJ) but last year we had more than one.......we need someone on the perimeter with it too......to replace Ariza - AP seems to be it.

    In a little different manner but he adds something missing.

    I was told the Rockets aren't fun at basketball because Twitter doesn't like Harden cooking their favorite teams

    attitude is an important thing... thats why ya gotta keep guys involved and engaged... when the ball is flying around, guys are cutting to the rim, grabbing boards... creates energy and guys have fun...

    jus sayin...

    And some would have you believe it’s no fun playing for the team that has you sit in the corner while Harden dribbles.

    He is having fun because his previous coach was sort of like a dad to him. I dare Rivers say D'Antoni is the best coach I ever had, he was like a father to me. Seriously, just wait till he gets into a fight.... against Westbrook. He has a little Beverley in him. Actually, I can't wait he plays against Beverley.
