I get he makes himself look bad at times but he’s nowhere near the bad player folks make him out to be.. If folks would change their outlook going into games, they’d see a complete dif player.. Even moreso, if you go back & watch the tape

If we’re gonna give all the players a pass (PG to a lesser degree, for some) cuz of Ty & the staff, then we gotta do the same with Reggie.. + it makes games a lot more entertaining when you’re not anxious to start criticizing someone

We can’t forget how short the off season & training camp was.. The more time the staff spends with the guys, the better they’ll get

I was always in favor of bringing him back on a minimum deal. Going head to head with Jordan McLaughlin, someone I also thought might’ve been worthy of the last roster spot, it was clear who is the more talented player (although McLaughlin did put up 9 assist in like under 20 minutes).

I get it was the medical team passing on him, but so far, looks like they were wrong on that front. I mean I guess we have to wait to see if he plays more than one healthy season, but reportedly Clippers thought he would never play basketball again.

With Shai already as a lottery pick, I thought they could gamble a bit, but I obviously didn’t see the medical reports.

I’ve developed an irrational antipathy to the way [Reggie] plays basketball, and now I’m always expecting the worst, a bad shot, a bad decision, a defensive lapse

I think this sums up how a lot of us feel about Reggie. But hey, on the bright side, it doesn’t take much for him to exceed our expectations.

Why does he continue to do this? Vision problems? Is it even correctable for him or are we simply dealing with a guy’s “achilles heel”?

He always appears to be freelancing and not taking the game all that seriously. Even a simple entry pass is an over the head hook pass rather than a simple chest pass. And don’t get me started on the constant spin moves that most of the time don’t lead to anything. There were so many other semi-competent PGs out there who could have competently soaked up minutes other than Reggie.
