Moderators lethalweapon3 Posted August 15, 2015 Author Moderators Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 I trust he'll get a fair shot to stick, so long as they're not looking for an 82-game player that deep down on the bench. J-Rich was mad-streaky shooting-wise in the back half of last season, but that of course was coming back off a long layoff on a DOA Sixer team. Being constantly praised for his professionalism and conditioning throughout his downtime by Brett Brown was probably a plus to Bud. J-Rich would take over that old-head vet role that Elton Brand had if he makes it to opening night. ~lw3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLHawks3 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) He'll be good off the bench if he makes the team and can also serve as a mentor to THJr. Edited August 15, 2015 by ATLHawks3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNorthCydeRises Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 This is a Rock Sund-esque move. - Flip Murray - Mo Evans - Tracy McGrady - Jerry Stackhouse Can he still dunk though? Like if Young Schröder tossed him an alley oop on the fast break, can he still go up and get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plainview1981 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'm rooting for him to make the team. Hopefully he can still be productive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin capstone21 Posted August 15, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 If he can give thabo a 15 minute rest at SF (6'6 and can play it even though he mostly played so) then I like it. He has had a quality career and acts As a professional,which is right for this team. Replace Elton's bench leadership and give us some depth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benhillboy Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) I like the move, I thought the man was 3 or 4 years older. He's not too far off from Joe in terms of career stat marks either. Michigan raised dudes always seem to be outstanding teammates, no wonder he has that reputation. He also authored one of the most absolutely beautiful dunks I've ever seen: that lob pump reverse corkscrew madness he finished the contest with in 02. If he can shoot near 40% from three, that's a huge shot in the arm in terms of depth. Carry on, BudCox.

GameTime Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Essentially replace Mike Scott as our streaky scorer (3pt shooter) off the bench that averages 0-18 mins a game depending on the matchup. If he stays healthy and in shape I can actually see him contributing more than we think, if one our wings (Baze, TH Jr, Holiday) doesn't step up like we expect them to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDog90 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 (edited) I didn't see it coming but he could be a great mentor to Hardaway, Holiday and Bazemore. Edited August 16, 2015 by BigDog90 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazer Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 This signing has "coach-in-uniform" to THJr written all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaceCase Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 If he gives 3 minutes of dominance in a playoff game like TMac did then it's well worth the potential signing. If he bitches about someone getting more PT over his decrepit ass like TMac did then it's not worth the signing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumpyphish1 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Love this. No risk. Dude was totally off my radar. Can def play some 3 and the mentor stuff is right. 15 mins per and a few threes and it's worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
