Magicpassion 4 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 Simms probably plays better defense, but Rivers can create his own shot and is better offensively. I would comb through all the options before I’d sign him, but if all else fails; yes he can put up some points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His career numbers don't really support a "shot creation" reputation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
argentinaworldchampion 32 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 Very pleased to see dj progress. he hits some clutch 3s and is a decent guard overall. ross should be in the conversation for MIP and I would like to see more consistency from gordon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Paul dominates the ball when he played in LA. Look I’m not saying he’s a perfect fit but if we need some scoring off the bench for the playoffs he would do after all options are explored.

TheNameIsOrlando 310 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 Rivers isn't a significant upgrade over Simmons or Grant. He literally changes our W-L none. Pass! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicdoc1 261 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 Easy Easy easy here.. letsnot get too emotional. He is no better than Simmons but certainly better than Grant. I do not know why he is been compared to Simmons. They will be playing different roles. But, yes, he is not making us any better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is an upgrade over Grant and will no hurt to ride with him as the back up for this year. It really doesnt hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,418 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 Additionally, I am told Rivers has wanted to play for the Magic for some time. He has a new baby in Orlando and his mom lives there. Apparently, he has several offers right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J-Mac 80 Report post Posted December 18, 2018 I can see Rivers playing good for us. Or at least at our home games. Once he dropped like 28 points on us 7 3's. With his boys gassing him up from the sideline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
