Wassamatta Yue?

tsaogrip drops Yue, picks up Finley

It's late, so this will be short.

Sun Yue, the 'Chinese Magic Johnson' is a versatile guard known for his playmaking. He apparently missed a chunk of training camp with mono, and that may or may not be related to his lack of PT. Consensus seems to be he's headed to the D-League for a while.

We've discussed Finley quite recently, so no need to repeat what I said there.

Judgment: This is obviously a solid move by tsaogrip, as he's losing nothing, and using his #10 waiver pick also costs nothing. Small gains in PTS and 3s should follow.

Another Move!

Later Hosen drop Michael Finley for Anthony Carter

Michael Finley's, the Hosen's 18th round pick, has been a fantasy stalwart for years, a low-negative, across the board contributor. In his best year, he averaged 22/6/5...but that was 1999. In his heydey, he was a good steal man as well. Finley is now 35, and averaged 10/3/1.5 last year in a pseudo-sixth man type of role. Some have predicted a slight uptick in his numbers with Manu out for a while, but it's unclear if his aging legs will generate more than 11/3/1.5 3s.

Anthony Carter is supposedly the starting PG for the Nuggets. He averaged 8 PTS, 5 AST, and 3 REBs last year, by far his best. At 33, Carter is no spring chicken himself, and though he occasionally has a breakout 21/5/11 line, there's a lot of 7/2/3's in his past.

Judgment: We might be missing something (the Hosen should comment if we are!), but we don't see the 'point' - the Hosen are giving up PTS and 3s to get a few assists and steals. While it's true that they don't need the 3s, they also don't really need assists. Finley may end up on a roster sooner rather than 'Later'.
