    Imma put it this way, if we are willing to take a risk on Ben Mclemore and Anthony Bennet, than we should be willing to a risk on Luc for the minimum.

    It baffles me the people that still insist on mentioning Luc’s name. THE DUDE DID NOT PLAY LAST YEAR! So whether it was by pure luck or maybe our front office questioned his health, we hit a home run by not re-signing him.

    Again we(the people who want luc here) understand the injury concerns, but willing to take a risk for an impact player. Its not like Tilman's going to suddenly become not cheap.

    Not those guys per se, but just having a legitimate 3 and D player in general. It's not the Rockets without them.

    Both those guys are healthy and under 30. Two things we can’t say about Luc.

    At this point no one knows anything about his health. I’m saying if he is healthy we should absolutely try to sign him because his upside has a much bigger impact than the other two .

    You’re right we don’t know for sure. But the fact that he’s still without a contract isn’t a good sign.

    They also do not play a lick of defense. A one armed Luc is probably a better defender than both combined.

    Luc for vet min is a no brainer. He could be the D coach, hes that good.

    Again, not disagreeing with any of this but the fact that he’s STILL without a contract isn’t a good sign about his health. The player we knew might not exist anymore.

    one armed luc was absolutely brutal and missing point blank layups. dude was terrible returning from his shoulder injury and was never close to the same. and now he has bad knees to go along with it.

    Vet min is no risk.
