Sam Mitchel is a complete idiot, so I wouldn't put much stock into anything he says. Alston is a quality player who I would love to have on this team.
We can't have Alston here, I'm just sitting here thinking of the number of potential threads about streetballer Skip to My Lou "waiving Yao off " and I'm about to vomit.
Alston shoot way too much. He is overrated. One good year in Miami. We need a PG, not defected Francis clone.
I would rather wait for Antonio Danials this summer. Rockets should be able to get him for the MLE and I would think that with Yao, T-mac, and a starting spot at PG available he would want to come here. Only negative thing that could happen is that some team with tons of caps space overpays for him (like G.S. did for Fisher and Toronto did for Alston).
We should just wait (and hope) for Daniels this summer, though I don't think he has any interest in coming here... I might be wrong. Dickau isn't that much different than Matt Maloney or Brent Price, honestly. Or that much better, for that matter. Brevin Knight's always been a good passer with great hands on defense, but there's a reason that he's never been on a good team. He's a defensive liability against bigger, stronger guards, and he can't shoot for crap. Marcus Banks was just another Celtics draft day mistake. Skip to my Lou isn't that good. He's a streak shooter who doesn't play good defense and his game still has too much street in it... He's much better as a backup, but he's getting payed like a quality starter.
they could play this during the games and play the knicks and Magic every afternoon on an outdoor court !
