Did any team pick up Nate? I think we need another guard and I would like to have Nate back.

I'm pretty sure he isn't in the league and good god am I glad he isn't on our team anymore.

No interest in a sub 5' 10" SG and I think the rest of the NBA seems to agree (unless I am mistaken).

It'd be a monster improvement over Bradley, I know that

They did the buyout too late. Didn't finalize it until right before the season opener.

Left Nate in a difficult position with most teams having already filled out their roster. His agent should have pushed that deal through quicker. Really let Nate down by letting it play out so long.

The only advantage Nate Robinson has is that he already knows our system.

However, this is a LAST RESULT ONLY situation.

The fact is he can provide scoring off the bench when there are many, many nights when nobody outside of our starters can do that for us

Nate can't D, and even though he's probably more skilled offensively on paper than Bradley, he didn't really show it that much while he was here.

Nate played pretty good pressure D for us, which I admit was surprising, but he did.

Nate Rob will not be coming back, remember our captain already indirectly called him "immature". Dooling is a better fit anyway.

I think Nate is working at Foot Locker. He's the only one that can jump up and grab the size 16EE's from the top shelf without the step ladder.
