Kyle Weaver

[idiot]

Report is that Weaver looking to make an NBA team this year instead of playing in Israel -- 10 teams interested in him: https://thehoopsmarket.blogspot.com/2010/08/maccabi-tel-aviv-decides-to-give-up-on.html

Hope the Jazz are one. He seems like a better option for that last wing spot than Jeffers. Of course his price may be too high for the Jazz, as with so many of the names that have been thrown around previously.

...can he shoot? play defense? rebound? Listen to instructions? run plays???....or is he so dumb, I could bounce a basketball off his head like depicted below?

Weaver reminds me a lot of Wesley Matthews and might fill the role nicely.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I think Weaver is known as a defender? Im not sure though.

 

[D Will> CP3]

He is a 3 point shooter and thats all I know

 

[homeytennis]

He was a second round draft pick in the draft that gave us Kostas and two Europeans that are still playing over the pond.

Weaver played a ton of point in college and was projected as potentially being one in the NBA. I'd sign him and see if he can backup the 1 or the 2.

He's a good spot-up shooter (but not great), a good ballhandler, a good passer, has a high bball IQ, and is a great defender. Does all of the little stuff, but doesn't appear to be a liability on either side of the floor. I was interested in him in 2008, and from what I've seen, I'm only more interested now.

Not that I disagree with anything you are saying, but if he was such a solid player, why was he cut? I know the Thunder are pretty stacked at the guard spots, but it still seems like they would want someone you described as a end of the bench guy.

They would've kept him, but they had 16 players under contract and a team is only allowed to retain 15, so they had to cut somebody. I don't disagree with their decision, but that also doesn't mean that he's not an NBA player.

You forgot to add that he is also better than 99% of the scrubs you pimp on this board.

 

[homeytennis]

Weaver was the star of the Washington State team that had a good run in the NCAAs a couple of years ago.

 

[NCJazz]

Also I am sure OKC probably tried to trade him for at least a second round pick, but nobody wanted to even give a 2nd round pick for him. He probably wants more money than a Jeffers so not much chance we will see him here. I certainly was not impressed with from the games I saw. Matthews is a much much better player.

Numberica is right about Weaver. I think this guy is a Jazz player. He is a good man to man defender. His shot is not great at all but he plays under control (in comparison to Price & Gaines). He is more pass first than either of our 2 guys also. I would want him playing the back up 1 spot. And a little at the 2 if needed. He is a good kid from everything I have read. When we were working him out I heard a lot of good things from the Jazz. He would be an upgrade over Price.
Your exactly right. He does all the little stuff. Which means he is more successful when he plays with better players. He doesn't have to dominate the ball to be effective. Good role player and that is what we need at the Point guard spot. Somebody who won't try and do too much. No brainer in my opinion. But if there is 10 teams after him than that means we don't have a chance.

...sounds to me like he was born to play Jazz basketball....for the Utah Jazz!

 

[D Will> CP3]

I thought he worked out for the jazz during the year he was drafted

 

[GVC]

Kyle Weaver and Delonte West would be huge upgrades over Jeffers and Gaines.

Anyone know what happened with Weaver? His wikipedia gives no insight and I haven't seen anything anywhere else.

Link? Oh thats right you just pulling this out ya ***.

Everything he stated was obviously an opinion. He made it pretty clear that it was his opinion. Why do you think people come to this forum?

Because its all BS! There is no merit to his "opinion". Just cause some dude gets cut does not mean he does have skills or is a knuckle head. I dont think I need to tell you in the NBA buisness decisions are made (maynor) that dont make basketball since. So why do you come to this forum? You down with all the " Deron to Dallas" threads that idiots spam this board with. Or how about the "Jeremy Evans is the next KD" threads. Listen, its fine to have an opinion but if it stupid your *** is sure to be put on blast.
