I just think there’s enough there to see a hard worker put things together on that side. In our offense, he’d have some semblance of a Reggie Bullock role, but with the added ability to close out on the defender.
There are a couple of things that scare me about him:
1. Based on comments he made near the end of the season, he truly believes he should play a much bigger role in the offense. Unless that attitude changes, I see him as a malcontent who has the potential to seriously disrupt team chemistry.
2. Based on his warped self-view, I also doubt that a financial agreement can be reached that compensates him appropriately to his contributions. Perhaps the market will speak loudly, and he'll humble himself and accept reality. Maybe a bit above vet min?
3. Based on Cuban's "one knucklehead" policy, we'd limit our ability to get another high-productivity-but-low-emotional-maturity player. Is this how we want to spend our allowance?
