    He had to be waived by March 1 to still be eligible for the playoffs for any team that picked him up.

    Welcome back, AB--the once-prodigal son.

    Give us those FU threes and bring us back to the playoffs

    I'm intrigued by the Team option. Bima needs to get the scope on the deal.

    I'm sure they brought him back because he has playoffs experience and can help this team to a run. So expect him to be Lin's Back up, not Beverly. And of course they also brought him because he's an asset to trade for a big name this off season or next season.

    On a serious note I'm glad to have him back. As many know when the opportunity is right he'll probably play along side Lin or Bev. Yes small problems but we've been witness to this working plenty. Also Ab/Harden will be great. So much potential here if AB comes here with great attitude and team chemistry builds sky is the limit. Books is obviously choosing to come here so he obviously wants to win. We have another motor on the team. Plus after all the life experiences he's just gone thru from being MIP to coming back from injury, the frustrations you could only hope has humbled him.

    Truly sorry for the rambling/grammar blaming iPhone on this one.

    Disagree. I could see all three playing. Give Harden more rest. 2 PG lineups will be utilized similar to Dragic & Lowery

    Happy with the signing. If AB is as good as before, I'll be happy.

    Welcome home AB.

    Not to mention Brooks at a significantly lower price than what he was probably trying to get before he left, although he's certainly not that same player from what he's shown recently.

    I think Aaron is a more natural compliment to Harden, at least until Lin become more consistent shooting the ball.
