Warriors Close to Signing Free Agent Guard Nate Robinson - Inside the Warriors - with Marcus Thompson

Ish Smith hardly played last game which is shocking because I liked his game. I wonder what he did.

I've been surprised no team has picked him up so far. He can ball. Yeah, he's got attitude issues from time to time but he showed in Boston that when he's in a stable locker room, he can be a nice asset off the bench.

I agree with your assessment, but I don't think the Warriors have a stable locker room (no playoff experience, sexual harassment lawsuit, no defined leader the caliber of KG, Ray or Pierce, etc.).

Mark Jackson seems like he can be fairly stern so it might be worth a try. At this point, you can give him a cheap 1 year offer so its not like you're risking anything

Ish Smith isnt very good and Jenkins isn't ready for heavy minutes in the League...Curry can't even walk for a week without being sidelined...just by watching the 4th quarter last night this team has nothing offensively with only Ellis...Lee, Wright, Rush these guys just can't do it and are struggling to score the basketball.

Agreed. He can't make things worse.

The problem is that I don't think Nate the Great is a point guard. The Warriors are now backing up their undersized 2 with an even more undersized 2. Jenkins and Smith will still need to run the point just as much as they have been.

May not be a bad pick up. He has some skills, but he just had some good players infront of him in on the Thunder. As for his attitude, I think it has improved. (perhaps with age) He seemed to have a positive attitude in OKC and represent the team well. Wish him luck....

The term "shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic" comes to mind.
