Uh..

 

What is this supposed to mean?

It's supposed to mean that his inflated stats may be leading people on this forum overrating him a bit.

 

my opinion of him is based purely on his skill level, which is/was enormous. That, and he has showed tremendous heart for battling back from that injury...

that's great that he has heart, and seems like a good guy, but how is that reconstructed knee going to hold up all season spelling nelson for 10 to 20 a game? 20 a game being very generous, but also remember we might have to use livingston against a rondo or rose a bit more.

Just what the Magic need...another dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, shoot PG. I shed no tears when he left.

I'd rather have Livingston. I remember Dooling, and he played ok, but I think Livingston has more talent. Dooling uses up too many seconds on the clock with his dribbling act.

[Chase 209]

Dooling was the shiz back in the day. He also gave me a high five when i was a kid

 

SIGN HIM!

[IronMaiden 43]

Put me down as one more fan that wants Dooling back.

 

One question though...can he strictly be a backup PG for us? If so, then hell yes to signing him.

Dooling is only a good point guard when in executing a fast paced offense. He's a high energy guy and when there's high energy in the game, that's when he's suddenly becomes better.

 

I don't know how much Keyon has improved now. He did play for the nets..guys.

Dooling has been added to the long list of those affected by the Nets curse. There was a reason the Magic let him go in the first place. Magic are moving forward, not backwards.

That would make sense if it did. I agree, though. They did let him go for a reason. If I recall, it was for being a bad locker room influence. Heck, with eyes like those, how could he not have been?

 

As far as on the court play, I don't see how you could go wrong with him. This isn't the Brian Hill v.2 era anymore. He wouldn't be asked to run the offense.

[KandiKane 136]

If he wants to come play for the vet minimum and proves he is healthy then why not??

 

Will allow magic to spend in other areas and allow magic to have a defensive back up at point.

 

Also there is no way we can get CJ Watson from Warriors so no point talking about that.
