Poor Gaines, the three point shot he made against Lebron and the Cavs is probably the highlight of his career.

Well that's better than the top highlights of many players' careers.

True that, but I'm sure Gaines would like to progress much further in his career.

The next step would be for him to get a multiyear guaranteed deal.

 

[Ben10]

Not much surprise there.

 

[Hartsock]

Yesssssssssss now we can get him back!!

Time to jettison Braille!

 

[cctrackstar]

No room. The only way we take him back is if we waive Tinsley or Watson. Sure if Braille gets waived the Jazz have room for him but the team already has four combo guards. (Five if you believe Burks can play it).

But everyone knew this so I am guessing that was sarcasm.

As for my take, I like Gaines and wouldn't mind seeing him if there was room. As for Ahearn, I never saw anything that made me think he would be a guaranteed contract player. He can keep playing in the NBADL and get ten day contracts when someone need to fill a spot due to injury.

Who cares.

Dont want any part of those players.

You are a dummy then.

I would take Gaines over Watson for sure, and possibly over Tinsley.

You know, I wouldn't be offended by this. I never knew 'talent wise' what people see in Watson. Sure, he'll make a great coach but right now I don't see him as a contributor on a playoff team.

Yatta can't shoot the 3 point shot vs. the Cavs notwithstanding. There was a reason he was undrafted out of college.

Neither can Watson. Neither could Tinsley, though it looks like he's worked on it.

 

[cctrackstar]

Really, getting Yatta would be simply bringing some youth to the third guard. However, I really want to do that with next years draft. (our 28thish pick, not the golden state pick)

 

[homeytennis]

No way to sign any of them since Bell is still here.

Not to mention the fact the Jazz are full at the PG position anyway.
