Pels "audtioning" Jarrett Jack Per Stein

CP3 back to NOLA - CONFIRMED.

I remember Jacks time here, but forgot his game, was he considered more of a pass first player? And was he good on D?

Runs an under control offense as a combo guard. Good mid-range game and minimized turnovers. Defense was solid iirc. Good locker room presence.

He was ripped by about half the fan base the year he was the starting PG because he's not a natural PG. He's a lot more like Holiday/Tyreke in that if part of the play is to pass they can make the pass, but if it breaks down they aren't going to find a pass in the chaos like Frazier can.

No, he was bad on defense when he was here 5 years ago, I imagine he's worse now that he's older and slower. I've always wanted to see him come back because he's got some great vocal leadership skills, but I do question how well he fits a defense and pass first team.

He was really good at that. I remember him basically stepping up in games and doing the kinds of vocal leadership things everyone wished CP3 would do more of.

They are gonna really try this summer

Try for what? Sign a 4th $25+ million player, or are they still planning to trade for as good of a young vet scoring wing as the 2018 pick will get them?

Time running out...one hour left.

Chances something happens at all?

100%

damn baw. that's confidence
