3rd 30+pt game this month and his shooting % isn't bad

A little too much chuckery still but he's getting it done

SVG made a hilarious comment about his game the other day

SVG is really becoming a miracle worker of sorts, Drummond beasted too

Waiters is really good. I don't watch a lot of college basketball but I watch Cuse. Waiters was a scapegoat on the cavs. He still brought it when he got minutes but moving on was good for him. He isn't harden but he gives OKC a ton of talent off the bench. Really happy for him. Hope the Knicks didn't avoid him because he doesn't fit the character club qualifications. He would have been a huge talent upgrade on the Knicks.

I vouched for looking into acquiring him earlier

mreinman snuffed at my idea of doing so

But once had his value even when Shump was still bad

This year he didn't even have Austin Rivers value

Just a travesty of a year by Phil and Fisher

What OKC get out of Waiters is going to be different than what we would have gotten out of him. Until we get our culture right and out player development right, and some smart, vets in, there's no use trying to acquire work-in-progress players like Waiters- it's just not going to end well.

You're ignoring his performance up until these past few games, CrushAlot- he's on a hot streak, but he's still a diabolical shooter, who usually has a detrimental impact on his team.

I have always thought he was the more talented player in that spot. Obviously Lawson and Holiday went later in the draft and have a better resume but at the time of the draft Jennings was considered the better prospect. He always plays great against the Knicks.

He does play great against us, but I'm really not a fan of his at all- outside of this hot streak and the Knick games, he's looked pretty awful

I thought the Lakers would be a perfect landing spot for him, but he's continued to fluctuate between poor and average. At this point it's looking like he is what he is- a 20min backup. I'd still like to trade Bargs for him at the deadline, not because I'm that bothered about him, but just to see if he can play the triangle

Says the man who wants to trade a future first for Wilson Chandler. The reason the 1st went to Cavs, was because at the heart of it the trade was Waiters to OKC for a 1st. We then offloaded JRs contract to them, and the cost of that was giving up Shump. We could have moved Shump in a separate deal for maybe a late 1st at best, or a second rounder, but it was decided we needed to banish Smith for culture reasons and cap space.

If Phil does his job this summer with pick and cap space

A 2018 pick really won't factor heavily into our success

But $7mil more cap space next year or the year after most certainly could
