    36% is better than Ariza or Harden last year ..... and his 36% was in an offense that is not nearly as 3 point shot friendly as the one he is about to be in.

    He also has an elite shooting % on uncontested shots.

    Sweet, the partially guaranteed last year makes the deal better. Hopefully is just 1 mill or something.

    Joe Ingles got a 4/52 contract. Cristiano Felicio freaking got a 4/32 contract.

    This contract is a steal.

    The 4th year is just a partial guarantee? Ok, I really like this signing now.

    He's giving up a decent amount of money if he's only getting 3 guaranteed years from us on a lower annual salary.

    He has the beverley attitude we needed after the CP3 trade. Just a great get for the bench

    Moraay has a way of moving contracts he doesn't want, so don't worry about the last 2 years.

    I'm sure Lebron will love having a guy like Tucker on his team next season ;)

    OMG another 32-year-old! But then again 32 is equivalent to 27 under the old cap.

    James Harden is 6'5 and he guarded LMA.

    Chuck Hayes was 6'6 and he guarded LMA.

    That right there is why Morey secured CP3 first. He might have paid a premium to get him here earlier but it gets you better deals like this.

    40 percent would make him one of the best in the league. Lets lower expectations. Lets just take the 35 percent with mainly corner ones.

    My only problem with him isn't that he looks a lot heavier than usual. Kinda like he was starting to give up in Phoenix Andy all of a sudden got traded and had to be ready to play in the playoffs..... hopefully he can shed a few lbs and be able to run with us..... 2 inches taller wouldn't hurt either but not a bad signing tho....

    Tucker would guard Leonard, for sure.
