FA: The Dallas Mavericks Sign Ryan Nembhard to a 2-way Deal

[SleepingHero]

Any thoughts on Nembhard‘s defense?  He’s obviously an asset monster, which I love.  I’m tired of scoring combo guards.

His defense is what I would describe as passable for the college level. Of course the biggest limitation is his size. He's 5'11, maybe 6'0 on a good day. We're not foreign to a diminutive guard in our offense (See: JJ Barea). What made Barea okay was that he knew exactly how to manipulate the defense so that they couldn't just bulldoze over him.

If Nembhard can do that, then I can see him surviving in this league. His offensive game also must match, but after watching a lot of game tape, I really believe in the dude.
