Is Earl Watson really OK as b/u to Devin Harris?

I feel like I'm one of the only people on this site that didn't wildly sway between two extremes with Price. I liked Hart more than him for the first half of the season they were here together (which is when Price really brought it and had an incredible rest of the season). I thought Brevin Knight should've been playing ahead of Price when they were here together, the whole way through. I stand by all of that.

I also saw right through the issue when he 'stood up' to the Lakers. I'm confident that was one of the most valuable tantrums ever thrown even if I still appreciated it. The Price/Knight issue discussed on this board was hilarious, especially after Price threw the kitchen sink in that game.

Not everyone can sit on the bench most of the time and still give 110% at all times and be an NBA player. He is a consummate professional and is an ideal end of rotation player.

I don't know if I want him re-signed. It would depend on how everything else shook out. I can tell you that I'd rather have Price for peanuts than Harris for $20 million.

Great post.
 
Ummm. Brevin knight? Jason hart? Really? Price over both those two everyday of the week. Jerry sloan is gone now so we don't have to have three point guards. Especially if none of them can dish the ball. Doesn't that just make them short 2 guards. We could just run two shooting guards at once sometimes.
 
Part of why we should hold off on re-signing Watson is if this Jefferson/Chris Paul rumor actually bears fruit.
I actually like Price as an end-of-the-bench guy, THIRD string PG or SG. His energy has gotten us back into games that were lost too many times to count over the years. IMO, Sloan used him as the #2 too many times, and in the wrong situations. If we do end up with Chris Paul and keep Harris, I'd rather see us re-sign Price than Watson... Picture us going small with Paul and Harris together, with Price as a b/u... Non-stop energy...
