    Dude is 6-4, he's primarily a guard.

    Fans have been whining about another guy to defend smaller guards on the perimeter, well here you go.

    In a vacuum, I like it. But we were an incredible defense last year with a mediocre offense and other than KD who I don't expect to play every game, we've only added defensive players this offseason. It's getting a bit redundant.

    If his defense is still elite then this is a great signing.

    Bingo. My nightmare for this season is that KD gets injured and every night we're watching a replay of Warriors Game 7.

    My concern is we don’t have any perimeter player than can consistently put pressure on the rim.


    I know those guys are at a premium but yea….it sucks.

    Edit: Amen definitely can put pressure on the rim but his lack of a perimeter game can negate this at times.

    Bro we don’t need anymore defensive wings!

    if 2 of our wings got hurt. We would still be perfectly fine.

    if FVV or KD or both get hurt we are F*CKED!

    Great signing. He's better than DFS & plays amazing defense.

    All our wings come without shooting and they are extra spicy on defense[​IMG]
