ball catch create guys move seen willing
We need some guys who make it work. Sometimes you just need guys to catch the ball and move the ball and get out of the way and create spacing and things like that. I haven't seen a lot of that so far, of guys really willing to do that.

I emerged from summer league feeling that I would have no trouble, no problem playing Wayne Simien. And I think that's the first step for any player. ... I think he has the skills and the smarts and the toughness where you would have no problem.

The people out there with the 'too many stars, not enough basketballs, too many egos,' that's wrong,

He's a guy that if you tell me, 'You've got an injury or whatever and you've got to play Wayne 24 minutes a game,' I'm fine with that.

He's a very, very good passer and he can shoot the ball. He needs to knock down perimeter shots for us consistently. That's obviously something that we're looking for right now.
difficult guy
He will be a very difficult guy to cut.
