Yea, he has. Guess he'll be a decent end of the bench guy.

So it has to be using part of the MLE (so long KJ) or the BAE.

Seems slightly more than the minimum, which I don't think is possible. I'm guessing that's the minimum for players that have been around that long.

I know they wanted to add a G/SF end of bench swing. I guess we could do worse, but he doesn't do much for me. Career 33% 3pt shooter.

Yep.. Would rather have gotten a younger guy who had upside.. Not an older guy who is past whatever peak he had.

But anyway welcome to New Orleans Alonzo. We will be rooting for you.

Yea, doesn't move the meter for me. Even if we would have landed KJ, I don't think he would have much impact anyway.

Bringing his name into this thread should be a punishable offense, too. Say it two more times and that a-hole will show up and shite all over floor.

Just seems odd that we would use part of the MLE or BAE on this guy. Seems like a vet minimum guy.

And I guess technically, we wouldn't be out of the running for McDaniels, because we could use whatever we didn't use on Gee for him.

He's a really solid defender and blazer fans really liked him.

This is probably a minimum signing for the end of the bench.

Not that I was expecting much more, but meh. Of what'd left, would have preferred Dorrell Wright, but as a 10th-12th man, whatever.

I'll wait for the details, but I really don't care for this deal if we lose flexibility by being hard capped for Alonzo freaking Gee.
