wesley matthews 6 points and 2 in garbage time
- Thread starter delpotro

He was off tonight and was well defended. I would not call a driving layup with 15 seconds or so on the clock down by 3 garbage time though.

Can you imagine what the rage would be on this board if we were paying $8M for him?
He'd be the new whipping boy.

curious to see what locke says about how dearly we missed raja tonight
I think out of his 5 three pointers, 4 of them were wide open and he bricked them. Actually, now that I think about it, the only shots he made were the really well contested shots from the FT line and in.

He was given that shot, though.

$8mm? Dude's cap hit is just a hair over $6mm, and his salary is even less.

He's not having a very good year. His 3-pt % is good, but overall just 42% and averaging 14/3. I really like a Hayward/Burks rotation at the 2, as long as KOC drafts or trades for a starting SF. I'd even be ok with resigning Howard, although I think he brings a late 1st in a trade to a contender, which is too valuable an asset to pass up.
Matthews is a good rotational player. He is one of the few complete SG's in that he plays D, can hit shots, and is a good teammate. I just think he was overrated by many on the board.
True, still not garbage time
Hayward scored 2 points in garbage time with 2 seconds to go when he had 2 wide open easy free throws, right?
There is a lot more pressure on FT's than there is on a wide open layup. Have you never played basketball?
