What do you guys think about him? I know we like our guards (Lin & Beverly) but I would be interested in signing him in the future. Guy has the disappointment stigma attached to him but I see him as a much better tonie Douglas. A player like him would be interesting lined up with Harden. He's shooting 42% from 3 this year. I would like him as a free agent pick up to solidify our backcourt.
i always liked him but it's too early to talk about him especially when we gotta worry about bigger fish in the offseason.
Agreed. But honestly if Morey trades asik & Trob & picks for Dwight. Signs Foye.... 3/15 mil Foye/Lin/Bev Harden/Lin/foye Parsons/delfino DMo/Tjones/Royce DHo/Smith Yes I realize Royce is the least likely to be on our roster next year.
So, forget defense, ball handling, anything like that. If a guy shoots 40% from 3, something which it should be noted he has really only done once, and is 29, you should throw the MLE at him. Makes sense. If you're Carrol Dawson.
He's a pesky defender. Not great but not a liability either. With Harden you don't need a traditional PG. A J.J. Redick type is actually a better fit.
Watched him in college when he played with Lowry at Villanova. Not sure where they got that "Dwyane Wade-lite" projection about him heading into the draft. Never saw that kinda upside you'd see in even an Eric Gordon or Brad Beal. Thought he was top 20 pick maybe, not a high lottery pick. Certainly not better than Brandon Roy (And I thought the Rockets "lucked" into Rudy Gay when Foye went off the draft board, and then we know the rest of that saga...) Far as usefulness on the Rockets, Rockets seems to do well finding backup backcourt players for pennies on the dollar. I think Foye is a type that'd only be brought in on a lowball rate like Carlos Delfino
He's a decent player, but there's no point. We have Beverley as a backup PG and if we need a backup wing we can just bring back Delfino. Pass.
He's better than Beverley. But contract wise, Beverley is way way better. No way we give Foye a 3 years/18m contract as OP suggested.
