I like the trade. Going to be interesting to see if Ennis will contribute when given mpg. Which I expect him to get a few every game.

Only 22yrs old. Read his scouting report. Smart low turnover PG that works hard and has leadership intangibles. Not athletic but decent defender. Very good bbiq helps him run the P&R.

Not sure how this is bad in any way except he is not George.

Even if this guy fails how is it a bad thing to give a former #18 pick a 24 game tryout?

Which advanced stats are you comparing them at the same age? Also, do you believe it's a one-to-one comparison to compare a bench player to a starter?

Young player, former 1st rd, still hasn't broken through, low risk, high reward... These are the types of finds we would give Mitch props for especially if they pan out. So good job Magic Pelinka!

BTW, Rockets do this all the time. Had to decided between Kyle and Dragic, then Dragic and Lin, then Lin and Beverley. They had to let Tarik Black go, now letting Ennis go.

He's an actual point guard and can shoot the ball.

So he'll run the offense in the system Luke wants just fine at backup 1 and it prevents Clarkson from shooting 20 times because we have an actual backup 1 now.

Will fit the offense.

Don't expect him to be a savior but I expect him to be able to do what would have been expected of Calderon had he kept the backup 1 role.

I don't think age was used as a factor. It's this ongoing ruse to show "objectivity." I frankly appreciate candor. If you don't like the kid, just say it.

Funny thought - bringing Ennis on board could help Clarkson get his groove back. Jordan could have a chip on his shoulder thinking that Ennis, who was drafted ahead of him (#18 whereas Clarkson was #46), is not only now on his team but also could be stealing his minutes! Better work on that defense by shutting him down in practice and prove the scouts wrong by demonstrating that he has the "pure point guard" skills that the scouts said Ennis had

How is he a tank move? He can't be worse than Huertas!

Oh actually he can!


QFT

Huertas can play make. Ennis haz zero skills.

If he can't he'll just take Huertas' spot on the bench and not return next year. NBD

Farmar plateaued his 2nd year when he was 21 and put up very solid advanced #s. Of course he was playing against opposing benches and off of Kobe a lot so situations are a tad different.

B-but Farmar averaged 16/4/5 on 46% shooting per 36 minutes!

I assume Ennis replaces Lou in the depth chart?

Russell-Young-Ingram-Randle-Black
Ennis-Clarkson-Deng-Nance-Zubac

If Ennis is able to generate good looks for Clarkson and Zubac, second unit might end up outperforming the first again. All 5 guys can space the floor. Prefer to move Zubac to the first unit.

Ideally I'd like to see this, but I have a feeling Brewer is taking Lou's spot and Ennis will be 3rd string

Again? The myth that the bench outplayed the starters for the first half of the year was disproven already

I mean he was good his 2nd year, lol. If he kept improving he'd have been legit starting caliber, but he never did.

Don't fool yourselves. He's bad.

But he's on a expiring, so he's probably leaving next summer. He won't have to unpack his bags.
