Just sharing this because I haven't seen it on here yet but what do y'all think about Paul Watson?

As Jaybird stated...………...practice player.

Some of the article clips have stated about how he plays bigger than he is and he likes the glass. So I see the point of him having a chance with us.

It is always a low % roll of the dice for G-league players for me.  Most wash out while a few become serviceable to great.  What I've read on Watson seems interesting enough that I'm looking forward to seeing him.  Not betting he turns out to be a real player but interested to see.

Looking at his highlights & scouting report he has good athleticism as well as a good 3pt shot. I agree with the 2 post above though I'm questionable on what he'll turn out to be with us just yet. Something tells me he may just stick but that depends on if/when we make a trade & how the roster pans out.

With the recent news about Parker and surgery the roster shuffle may very well give the guy some minutes at one of the forward spots. A good proving opportunity for Watson. Eat some glass PW.

I posted about him in the other thread. I am interested to see how he fits in.

Can he play PF? No Bruno, No Parker.

The way our rotations have been this yr I'm sure we can "wing" it. Celtics style if need be

Since he here on a 10 day contract, I hope we get a sneak peak at him soon.

What is Charlie Brown?  Is he even alive?  Has anyone actually seen him alive since summer league?

Begs the question, why're we bringing in all these wangs when none of them will deserve to play over Redd/Hunt/Heurt/etc.?

Can I see some big men prospects?  A guard, maybe?  Just try somebody.  Can't be worse than Len!

I stand corrected.

Charlie Brown is the official bench towel waiver when he was called up. He's really good at it.

He has his games but I've seen a lot of losses that I blame on lack of true energy in towel waiving.  Not ready to buy into him long-term.  Maybe if he breaks out some Goggles or something....

Down 22 i guess they figured why not.   It's elementary.
