Hopefully this means that we're looking to deal Dooling for Lee.

I don't view Lucas as a PG. He's more of an undersized SG forced to play the 1, much like Nate Robinson, I think.

I don't like the idea of Lucas as a 3rd string PG. Would much rather try to find a legit pass-first guy who can play a little defense.

I like this kid but i don't think he fits with us.  He's 5'11" on a good day.  Not an ideal candidate for a combo guard.

I think I'd prefer to bring back Carlos Arroyo.

I love Lucas as a third stringer.  Not much more than that though.

He's a lot taller then Muggsey Bogues. Height isn't everything. Sometimes you can measure a point guard by his heart, grit, and determination.
