Slightly better than Parker but with better outside shooting
Fuck yeah
Of course they want to buy him out. They don't want to give him $7 Million next season. Question is how much is he willing to give up to get free and if the Wolves agree to waive set-off rights.
Maybe as some bench insurance for Manu. He can score but he is pretty awful at almost everything else imo. Might not be horrible in a gary Neal type role but honestly I'd rather pass

No thanks.... Joe Johnson or let's ride with what we got
He isn't an idiot gunner like Neal, he's more comparable to Barbosa.Quote:

No thanks.
Me no like Kevin Martin
Chip would have a coronary event watching his shot mechanics...
Good pick up knows how to draw fouls he's better than Bonner so why not

Terrible at defense but a shooter. Good person. Fragile. Sign for the min. He's better than butler
You mean better than Simmons? (Butler is actually better than Simmons) :lolQuote:

Is it just me or does Kevin Martin have almost the same shooting mechanics as Curry, except he brings it from the side instead of from the chest? Doesn't take a lot of power and pretty accurate. Just an observation.
He played well in OKC until Westbrook got injured & he was forced to be the 2nd option.:lolQuote:

So... we signed Andre Miller?? :lol
It was funny while it lasted.
Just got the rumors. We're signing both?? But how are they gonna used Andre? Post ups? :lol
Curry will have no where to hide!:lobt:Quote:

Jerry Zgoda: FYI: Kevin Martin was at practice today. Deadline for players to be waived so they can be playoff eligible w/ a new team is 11 pm tonight
– via Twitter JerryZgoda
Was he saying good-bye to everyone at practice?
Doubt it. I'm sure he was just showing up for practice as like any other normal practice.Quote:

He needs to stay sharp b/c he will be thrown into the fire right away ala Joe Johnson. Plenty of players get pulled from shoot-around let alone practice when they get traded.Quote:

That would really help your position; abandon your contractual obligations to peddle yourself in a boardroom. Yeah the Spurs would love that mentality.Quote:

But Kevin isn't supposed to be the franchise player so unlike the answer he has to go to practice.
Duh! What I'm saying is that teams let players that are bound to get traded practice or even participate in shoot arounds till the last minutes despite the risk of injury which isn't an issue for buyouts.Quote:
