    Pablo Prigioni last season:

    127 ORTG, .127 WS/48, +2.5 RPM (+ on offense and defense).

    He's so old, he could fall off a cliff, but that's what you risk when you're giving up trash players like Shved.

    I like this overall as Shveddy Balls was not doing much.

    Prig is super old though.....but he is very smart.

    Pablo is better than Shved, but we couldn't even get IT, let alone Knight or Augustin.

    Prigs is definitely a product of advanced analytics

    To steep of a price, IMO.

    Should have given up 1 second rounder, not 2.

    Don't mind this deal. Two late second rounders you can always buy. Prigioni is a solid backup and obviously addresses a need.
    Floor general. Good defender. Decent shooter. High bball-IQ.

    Defensively him and McDaniels are huge upgrades over Canaan and Terry.

    Haven't seen much of Pablo, but I know now why the russian wanted to go back to Europe: he was a liability for us even in the few minutes he saw the floor.

    Very solid veteran in case of emergency.

    It makes sense considering the massive slide the team has taken defensively. I'm not sure McDaniels plays though.

    We'll see if this trade is being reported completely accurately, lots of times these trades get announced and the actual details are wrong and don't get corrected until late that night or the next day.

    don't know anything about Prigioni but i love the KJ trade. He is a freak and lets see if we can resign him this summer.

    There should be more to this trade. Financially Prigioni for Shved doesn't work.
