Les Digits drops Peterson, snaps up Tony Allen
Mo-Peet was amazing in 2005-6 in TOR 17/5, with 2 3s, but regressed in each of the past two years, and now looks to be more or less Keith Bogans. On a per minute basis, he's been only a bit worse, but his minutes have been cut in half. There's no reason to think he'll 'explode' anytime soon, though he's a moderately consistent, low-negative guy, and he still seems to have a starting job, fending off Posey and Rasual Butler.
It's looking like the Celtics are going to blow a lot of teams out this year, and Tony Allen may be the beneficiary. Now that he's two years removed from his knee surgery, he looks a lot faster than last year, and has provided quite a bit of offense off the bench (11PPG), including a 23/5 outing on Sunday. He doesn't shoot 3s (that's Eddie House's job), but he is a good thief and even blocks a shot here and there. He's like a poor, blind man's D-Wade, and like D-Wizzle, is prone to a lot of TOs.
Judgment: Like any 6th man, there will be inconsistency here, but for a point starved Digits squad, TAllen is a recipe for success. We speak from experience, however, when we note that those 20 point lines make him hard to drop, even when he's not producing.
I can't believe we grabbed the same Mo Pete photo. Actually, I guess it's not that surprising.
ReplyDeleteChrist, we used the same headline, too.
ReplyDeleteYou are both retarded. What this organization needs is some organization.
ReplyDeleteI hate it when guys get dropped that are better than half of my squad.
Man - sorry about that. Maybe I'll edit them and combine them into an expert Mo Peet Roundtable...
