how does a player go from starter to waived in one season? Did this guy fall off that far?

I expect someone in the east to try to make room for Arroyo for no other reason than the firsthand scouting of Miami.

I think it just shows how desperate they are at the point guard position. I mean, Mike Bibby is going to represent a significant upgrade over House, Arroyo and Chalmers and there are many people out there who would say Bibby is washed up.

Somehow, Arroyo has got to be better than Rautins.

I challenge that.

I believe Rautins can register a DNP Coach's Decision with equal skill as Arroyo.

Agree/Disagree?

Arroyo was as desporate attempt to fill the PG spot on the cheap.

Dude can't hit his shot.

Don't bring him here.

Rautins is the future. We can't throw away invstments. That was the problem for knicks for years. No patience!

Arroyo is not going to be the differecne maker.

Actually Arroyo was shooting

46%fg and 44%fg(3pt) on the year thus far. Attribute this to playing with great players but his shooting wasn't really the problem.

I'm not all that into CA but one thing I can say playing on a team with Lebron and Wade the point guard position becomes extinct. One of the reasons I can't stand the way they play.

Good find on his shooting. I just found him awful every time I saw him play.

Bibby is an upgrade. Saw him play in person this year. The high socks and headband with his bowlegged stance is quite a site in person. Looks like one of those 65 year old YMCA legend players who plays the tough man defense and passes the ball.

But can he smile at the end of the bench the way Andy can?

Surely you can't be serious. I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

Dude is a third string PG but he could come in handy.

No layups!

i think he would have been an ok fit with chandler and gallo but not with this current team.

if the player doesnt bring defense or rebounding forget it.

Had enough Melo?

if Billups is out for any extended period of time, might not be a bad idea to pick up Arroyo.
