    Shumpert sucks, and his contract isn't good either

    I don't like this move, smh

    Decent role player. I've been saying for years now: Ariza is a player who doesn't like resting, but when he rests he is a totally different player. His performance when we have rest between games or when we have a good enough backup to limit his minutes is dramatically better. Shumpert is the kind of guy who can help us keep Ariza fresh.

    However, I do wonder if Shumpert is that much better than Troy Williams can be.

    Frye and shumpert for anderson makes sense for both teams. The rockets need players and the cavs need top notch shooting around lebron.

    offseason excitement is slowly dwindling for me

    Shumpert? Really?

    Good athlete good defender. I can dig it. Not a sexy pick but he will help off the bench

    It's a little disappointing if he is the "$12 million salary range type player" that we use the NG contracts on.

    Like the idea of another good defender but these contracts are ridiculous

    This basically means no Melo or Millsap, unless some other team takes on Anderson's contract

    Also probably means Iggy is staying in GSW

    I'm pretty sure we would have to wait 60 days before flipping him again... no?
