We’re not asking for any miracles out of Pruitt, just command 10-15 minutes, and not be a disaster.

You’re going to have second line up that’s more of a point guard by committee anyway, with Daniels, House, Pruitt all handling spot responsibilities with the ball. Plus you always have the option of running the offense through Wallace from the top of the key. Really all ya need Pruitt to do is get the ball over half court.

Pruitt isn’t ideal, granted, he’s not going to wow anyone I don’t think, but I think he’ll be good enough to do what we need him to, which is basically nothing (just don’t screw anything up too bad.)

I’m not ready to entrust Pruitt or Hudson with backup PG duties. Earl Watson was released maybe we can offer him the vet minimum, dude average about 7pts. and 5asts. a game last season in limited mins. i’m sure he will be a reliable backup. lets sign him and dump Pruitt and not sign hudson.

Still have a pressing need at back up PG! Daniels can handle it a little, but is not a PG. Pruitt is still unproven, and not really showing signs of a break through. And House is a shooter, period, NOT a PG. That combination will be able to effectivly give Rondo a couple minutes of pine time during a game to catch a breather, but if he misses any extended amount of games(even 3-5) we are in trouble. NEED a real back up PG!

I am concerned about someone who’s a little jumpshot happy (and is definitely NOT Eddie House…:( ) I’m willing to trust you guys on this one… Personally I still would rather have an extra big… Rasheed is 35 (or 36?) ….and KG is coming off a knee injury…

I liked Matt Barnes but this truly is a perfect fit. Daniels’ ability to bring the ball up the court should fit perfectly in tandem with Eddie House. Plus now we have Walker, Giddens, TA, and Daniels all dog fighting for minutes at the backup wing, which should improve all of their play. Great signing, Danny.
