Jose Calderon signs with Pistons

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Blows my mind that he's even in the NBA anymore, let alone STARTING tonight.
 
I will never understand this signing. The moment I heard about it, I hoped it was non-guaranteed. It created so little flexibility especially with him being 37. It made even less sense with IT hurt and Rose injury history. He lasted 5 minutes tonight and they played the rest of the game without a PG.

Can Gilbert ask his buddy Cuban to do us another solid and pick Calderon up on waivers? I would take Isaiah Canaan, Trey Burke, or Norris Cole if he can get out of his euro ball contract.

I'm fine with the signing for injury insurance.

But in no world should this guy be getting ANY minutes with how deep our team is. Even with 1 or 2 injuries.

I don't think he is insurance at this point especially at the position he plays. If he can't get on the floor and Shump is the better option, then we got sold a bad insurance policy.

We need to dump him and try our luck with other options the first chance we get. If it's waiving him when someone else has an injury or trading him when he being eligible.
 
I’d rather have deron Williams

I started questioning the fit of Deron in the preseason as I watched Calderon. One thing was Deron didn't play horribly with LBJ, he was just extremely unplayable with Kyrie. Deron actually played well when he was the sole ball handler on the floor.

Would I go back to the Deron experiment, no. I would rather find someone with some upside for the future. We have alot of question marks at PG at the moment and would like to see if we can solidify a backup for the future.
 
I mean.. it wasnt hard to see that beforehand.. he isnt even an insurance.. he is unplayable.
 
That's like choosing between a bear trap or a beehive for your next sexual conquest.

Probably gotta take your chances with the beehive, right? Bear trap is guaranteed to cut your dick off, whereas the beehive you’re guaranteed bad temporary damage.

Yup. It was a panic move by a new GM. Did they scout him last year? He should be playing in Europe as a backup at this point.
 
I would cut him: Caldecorpse

Brad Stevens and Steve Kerr be scared.
