Again, no idea if he’s a big partier or something. Or they thought the duo together would have too much power and Luka would listen to him instead of Kidd.
The whole thing is extremely weird when you only have two guys that can dribble a basketball and he’s so close to Luka and wanted to be here. He’s cheap, left handed, veteran leader, doesn’t need a ton of minutes. Seems like a perfect fit.
They should've signed Dragic and their failure to do so is a big black mark against Nico (and/or Cuban).
Regarding Facu, I liked him a lot before Denver signed him. His time in Denver has cooled me off a bit. He's a good defender and good passer, but from reading Denver forums over the years Facu has a tendency to make dumb plays in pursuit for the flash quite often. Couple that with subpar shooting and his lack of size and you get a flawed rotation guy.
That said, I'd take him over Frank and Green at this point to run the bench. Although I'd also take Kemba "no knees" Walker at this point too, which should show how unconfident I am with the bench shot creation we have right now.
I'm praying for a Mike Conley for THJ trade at some point this season.
