    If we get some of this then I am OK with this signing. Dude is fast, can pass well, not selfish. Need to make up scoring somewhere else, but I could see this work with the right combos.

    Looks to be great in transition, hopefully this signals a return to a run and gun offense like Harden's first year (no more Dwight post ups or slow played Harden ISO's.. wishful i know)

    Would rather have had Peyton Siva, probably could have gotten him for the same price

    Those Dwight post ups were the only thing keeping us in those playoff games. He'll get better each season he is with Hakeem and Mchale

    Morey is sick of hearing stupid critics saying that he lets to many assets go so he's bringing them all back. :grin:

    nice. a point guard who can't shoot playing next to james harden.

    he's like the homeless man's Ricky Rubio.

    I like the way he runs the floor and he's smart with the basketball,... will he contribute? well that depends on Canaan and Nick.

    Since we can't get Rondo, Morey went ahead and got us the dead man's Rondo.

    Maybe some of our young talent is going out in a trade and Morey decided we needed some bodies. I have no idea. I feel like we've entered Bizarro Rocket World.

    Probably right. If we get someone like Love, it would require a MAJOR gutting of the roster.

    Probably means nothing as to future roster moves. Just filling up the 20 player roster that you are allowed to have until the end of preseason. If you are gonna get up to 20, you are gonna sign a bunch of minimum wage guy.

    Same thing happened last year, with Aaron Brooks, Marcus Camby, Reggie Williams, Ronnie Brewer, etc. None of these signings were followed by any significant roster move.
