I know we have Bibby and Teague at the 1..but if we need to fill out the roster I wouldn't mind seeing this guy in a Hawks uni. I saw a few Clippers games last year where he was just awesome. The guy is probably one of the fastest players I've ever since. I can't remember which game it was but him and DeAndre Jordan were putting on quite a show. Anyways I want Teague to get as many min. as possible but wouldn't mind this guy as an 11th, 12th man off the bench. Thoughts?

He hasnt been released or anything has he?

He was a solid backup for the Clippers, and actually ended up starting several games for them. I dont see them giving up on him anytime soon.

He was released.

Great idea!!!!

He was released.

Wow.

then yes, by all means lets pick him up. That kid can penetrate and dunk like a MONSTER.

I wouldnt be surprised to see him in the Dunk Contest soon.

just found this one to add as well.

This was one of the NBA Dunks of the Year this past season.

Only after we offer Flip Murray a contract. After that then yes go after this guy. He is young and very explosive. Would be a great addition to an already good bench. But only after Flip.

Why do we need a guy to take minutes away from Teague? I like him but not on our team.

Guys, we don't have enough room on the roster to get two more guards. We can get one and he needs to be cheap (keep in mind that Flip will want a salary bump after last season and he'll get in the way of Teague's PT). Apparently Taylor stunk it up in Vegas this year and that's why the Clips cut him loose. We could probably sign him to a minimum contract but I'm not sure that he'd a good fit. I'd rather go after an old vet like Anthony Carter or bring someone younger in from summer camp but who's been around, like John Lucas III.
