Guys I'd rather have than Wesley Matthews

Also, just compare Matthews shooting technique with Brewer, and you have your answer about who is a better shooter. Regarding his mid-range game, that is something he needs to develop. His perimeter offense has been mainly his three, and when players come out to guard him, he blows by them and goes inside. In fact, his offensive strength is inside, not with the same type of shots, but like Tony Parker, and like him is deceptively strong, but bigger and stronger than Parker.

Matthews shooting technique isn't in question. However his Points per shot are fundamentally important to our team's offensive efficiency.

Fact: Brewer is and was more offensively efficient. More importantly if we can get Brewer on a shorter lower priced contract that just increases his relative worth.

Rasual Butler is still out there as is Josh Childress. We have several choices.

How about Matt Barnes?

Edit: re-read and saw him already mentioned. I wouldn't prefer him over Wes but he'd be a good signing, good outside shooter and gritty defender.

The same people defending re-signing Matthews are the same people who are going to be complaining about the signing for years to come.

I don't think we should match wes

But I really don't think we should resign Brewer unless it's for a very short contract. No team can win a championship with that guy and his terrible jumpshot. Rondo's And Shaq's jumpshots are about the same, but they do a lot of things better than Brewer.

Only if he sucks.

I'm an equal-opportunity curmudgeon.

I think Raja Bell is out there isnt he? Dont know what type of contract he is looking for, but he can shoot and play defense. Two good things. Roger Mason also might be a good choice. Much better shooter than Brewer. If we manage our cap well we could perhaps have enough money next off season for a near max player and perhaps enough to re-sign AK. So another reason to say no to Wes' deal.
