    If he is willing to sign for vet min, let’s bring him on. The man can still play and is the best PG insurance out there.

    I'd imagine he's still pissed at the organization for how things went down, but yeah, if he's interested in ring-chasing, we're not the worst destination anymore. He'd be a good mentor for Amen and Reed.

    I would not spend my last year mentoring or ring chasing, just enjoy your last games as a professional.

    That is it. Keep it simple. Being so small amongst Giants and having that much success is already huge.

    CP3 still wants to be a starter. Can't image he'd come here to be the 3rd string PG.

    Yeah, it's too bad really. He'd be a sick mentor to Reed. I know they worked out together a bit last summer.

    Oh god, we’re going to get this whole Kobe farewell tour again aren’t we? Every single game he plays on the road a tribute video etc…ugh, so self-indulgent.

    He is still better than FVV in every way, would have rather him running PG on this team.

    What part is false?

    You think FVV is better than CP3?

    You can't be serious.

    Of course I’m serious.

    You said a patently absurd statement and I said it was false.

    I actually think this is true for 10-15 mpg. for 30+ mpg, no way.

    We don't need a 30mpg PG, we want the ball in Amen and Reed's hands as much as possible.

    FVV was a wasted signing.

    Clippers makes the most sense and I’d love it, another CP3 & Harden shot at the title.
