    Had to look up "pedantic". My bad in being ostentatious in ones learning.

    Look at every other year of his career. He's a career 30% 3 point shooter.

    He averaged one shot per game and was primarily a cutter (mentioned this before). He didn't develop a shot until last season because he lost his explosiveness towards the end of his Pistons tenure and had to find a way to stay somewhat relavent. His shot attempts from midrange and 3 doubled per game and he can easily get you 15/5/5 any night and can even come off the bench and score 30 whenever he wants. He's a killer bench player and would fit perfectly. Especially now that he's im

    I think it's safe to say that our options at this point are:
    Sign Stuckey, let smith walk.
    Sign Stuckey, trade Tjones for future 1st, re-sign Smith
    Sac signs Smith, S&T for Collison
    Re-sign Smith, trade Tjones for another PG (Lawson)

    Lineup could be:
    Bev or Lawson/Stuckey or Bev or Collison
    Harden/Brewer
    Ariza/Dekker
    Dmo/Tjones or Smith
    Howard/Capila

    I think all those options are an improvement

    Wait...how do we sign Stuckey when already we've resigned Beverley and (likely) JET? Too many pgs.

    Probably best to think of the Jet as a shooter rather than PG at this point in his career

    He had three games after the All-Star weekend break where he scored 30 or more points (click spoiler below).

    The game where he had 34 points / 7 assists versus Orlando is in this YouTube video:

    Getting Stuckey should be our first priority if LMA goes elsewhere (which is very likely), right? Stuckey is perfect for this team.

    This is confusing. I thought you were calling my post ostentatious. It's a synonym of pedantic. I looked that up too. I'm gonna carry on now. I apologize for correcting your original post. I also apologize for the Pygmy's down in New Guinea. Amen.
