    I was a long time shake truther but he is a finished product and there’s not enough minutes for him to provide any value.

  2. If we convert Ricky to a real roster spot we still have one more spot right? We could do plenty worse. He’s always been at his best in the playoffs.

    It’s wild that Shake holds the NBA record (tied for 1st) for most consecutive made threes across multiple games. Most of it came in the game against Doc Rivers’ Clippers.

  4. CauliflowerFront3706

    Better than Danny green. Bring him home!!!

  5. I’d trust shake in the playoffs way before I trusted Oubre

  6. jeppsforst

    Bro should go to the bucks, Doc legit got a lot out of him

  7. throwawayjoeyboots

    Barely NBA caliber. this sub was way too high on him.

  8. Believe me when I say I love Shake to death but we might actually have a surplus of guards rn. Need wings more right now. Maybe Nurse can roll him out as a three? He’s 6’6”.

    The number of people melting down when we lost shake this off-season was wild. The delusion around shake was only outdone by the trade Maxey people and the blow up the team people.

    Lowry- 6’0″
    Maxey- 6’2″
    Melton- 6’3″
    Payne- 6’3″
    Hield- 6’4″

    I think getting a 6’5″ Shake might be a good point of difference if no other obvious buyout candidate presents itself.

  11. SleepyPirateDude

    No. He’s weak against real defense. Marcus Smart broke him.

  12. No-Operation9423

    He could have been decent Melton insurance, but I really like what I have seen from Cam Payne

  13. Shukkkkle

    I’ll admit I may have overrated Shake when we let him leave lol

  14. Shake has two modes of operation.

    * Nothing is falling, but he’s definitely going to try and shoot his way out of the slump.

    * He hits a few shots, but now thinks he’s prime MJ and will force up a bad shot every single time down the court.

    It’s like he never figured out that he’s not the man in high school anymore and never bought into being a role player in the NBA.
