Thunder waive Earl Watson

I think his roots are mexican...so he could soon became a fan favorite!
If he likes S.A. I'm not totally against that...he could form a strong defensive back court together with Hill, sharing point man's dutyes on offense...and doing wonders in a press defense.

i think he could be laker bound

i dont want ne1 else cutting into george hills pg pt

Earl Watson has been a favourite of mine through the years. Haven't seen him play recently though. He is a fantastic on ball defender and isn't afraid to shoot which are both attributes Pop would love.

Oh, he might be the best alley-oop passer in the league :hat (with Kidd and Andre Miller)

Would love to have him as a 3rd pg option but he'll find somewhere else to play backup.

If we can get Ben wallace for the minimum I would rather have him take a roster spot than Watson, we can never have enough bigs

The Lakers really need him. Fisher is getting older and older and gets ripped on defense.

i don't think watson would fit within the spurs culture.

didn't he go to the media and ask to be traded when the thunder began starting westbrook?

Uh, no.

Good news. He could have helped another contender.

I quite think Spurs won't add another vet PG but I'm not against it. However, one of the level of Earl Watson makes no sense to me. Having some concurrence is always good but there must have a hierarchy in a team. If your 3rd stringers have the level of 2nd stringers, it will create problems one day or another. I trust Hill enough to say that he has the level to be Spurs' backup PG.

Well that didn't take long. Good signing for them, and him.

I guess this means the Pacers let Jack walk?
(or did anyone hear news if they match the Raptors offer?)

pacer fans seem resigned (although some very happy) that he will walk.
