Jamaal Tinsley Receiving Interest From Charlotte

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Alex Kennedy: The Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, Charlotte Bobcats and Phoenix Suns have expressed interest in Jamaal Tinsley, according to sources. Twitter @AlexKennedyNBA

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that we are probably the last team on his list out of those for being that are offer (if we offered him) is probably less than the other three teams and the fact that our point guard position is in better shape than those other three teams.

 

However, adding Tinsley would put us three deep at the point guard position and I'm sure the 35 year old/10 year vet would be great for a young up and coming point guard like Kemba.

 

Last year, Tinsley averaged the following in 18.5 minutes per game

 

- 3.5 points per game

- 4.4 assists per game

- 1.7 rebounds per game

- 1.0 steals per game

why? we don't need him at all. Just make Dyson the 3rd PG and be done with it

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Just curious, but have you been watching the team during Summer League?

 

Dyson is easily the worst player on the roster. He's a turnover machine and a one-dimensional player that can't pass the ball.

 

If you're going to sign a player, at least make sure they are capable of playing at the NBA level.

Dyson gets a pick and sees nothing... Actually has zero court vision!

He will only drive to the basket and fling his hope-it-goes in floater or get fouled and proceed to miss two free throws.

All Dyson shows me is I shoulda gone to Isreal and play Pro Ball in the mid 90s

Dyson and Corey Higgins..... Who is worse?

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

That's a push between Dyson and Higgins. I do remember seeing Higgins score like 23 points though lol...

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

It completely escaped my mind that Tinsley has been playing with Big Al the past two years.

 

I wonder if Al is lobbying for Charlotte to bring in Tinsley.

 

One thing is for sure, Tinsley is a real fun player to watch because he brings a streetball element to the NBA game.

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

I like Tinsley but the first time he And 1 carries the ball in a critical moment his antics will grow old.

I would not mind it however..

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Lol he won't be in the game in a critical situation. Put him in when we are up 20 (so never).

There are many PGs on other summer league  teams that will not receive an invite that we should look at before Dyson.

I'd rather make a play on Mike Miller for some outside shooting and a backup SG/SF.  Makes it easier to deal Gordon in the middle of the season.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

The problem with Miller is that he is never healthy is always bitching about his injuries.

At some point you have to put up or shut up. I think that's one reason that the Heat amnestied him.

Na the only reason the Heat amnestied him is because is salary pushed them into the 3rd tier of salary tax.  They saved like $17 million by letting him go.  He was huge for them in the finals, so other than salary he'd still be there.

I like Triche better than Dyson. Guy can't even shoot.
