Pdiddy Do you think PJ will be wing scorer we need?

I believe, if given the pt, he will absolutely be.  He would have to either start or get the 6th man minutes.  And that goes for here or anyone else.   He has to be "the guy" when he's on the floor.   But,  considering we have Batum now, I'm not thinking best case scenario is 6th man.

He is a go to scorer, it's a matter if the team treats him as such.  He showed glimpses last year, especially defensively...  He had some spectacular highlights there.  But, considering some of the things that happened last season off the court, he could very well take all of that great ability and inexplicably be wasting it away dropping 35 a game in a euro league after his rookie contract is up,if he doesn't tighten up off court. 

But alas, I think I'm wasting my breath anyway.   Summarily, he needs minutes and needs to be fed the ball to get in a rhythm.  But unfortunately, I don't see either of those happening under Clifford.  I hope I'm wrong, but with us acquiring Batum, Lamb, and going after Bellineli, I think PJ already is being written off by the staff.

i was just giving you poo because you triple posted ;-)

All i will say is that PJ has got to go out there and earn his minutes, it isn't going to be given to him.  

He can't have unexcused missed practices again and he has to produce in the minutes he does get even if they are limited.

He has the potential to be as good as he wants to be.  If he works his butt off I agree he can be that guy.

Sorry for all the typos in the above post explaining my reasoning as to why he could be the go to scorer in response to teeray...   My phone and the new huddle layout has not been cooperating, and apparently neither is my auto correct.

Nonsense. 

Klay Thompson is an All-star. Iguodala is an Olympic gold medalist. Golden State was the best team in the NBA because you never knew who not named Curry (or Thompson for all but the Playoffs) might score more than 20 points on a given night. Green, Barnes, Iguodala all had their moments this season. 

This team had two bona fide stars and a few other guys who could be more than just "role players" on some other teams.

By your definition, anyone who isn't a "superstar" is a role player, which is stupid, since even "superstars" have a "role."
