Finally
I like Shake but with his usage he was just too inconsistent.. not sure if that is a Doc thing or a him thing.
Rico would have had shake as MIP. Shame.
When Shake was starting for the hospital sixers, he was giving us fringe all star level productivity at high efficiency. He was always capable of getting buckets and I found it bizarre Doc wouldnt give him a run when we had 5 minute stretches in the playoff with no field goals. Hes going to thrive with more minutes in another team and we’re going to look back at this as another mistake.
If Memphis does trade Tyus Jones then I think Shake would be a great fit there
Bummed to see a homegrown late round talent leave but there’s not a clear path here for minutes. Hope he balls out wherever he ends up!
We only need one M*lton
Here before he gets signed by the Heat and averages 20 ppg
can’t blame him for wanting a bigger role. hope he can find steady minutes elsewhere
Now give Springer a crack at the rotation instead of signing a corpse next week
Man watch shake go and avg like 17-20 ppg on a tanking/ non title contender team. Wish we can keep him
I think he’ll kick ass somewhere.
yeah, let’s get rid of our only backup pg. that’s always worked well in the past
thank god
Can’t be mad at this for a second, he deserves it. I think he’d be great for Memphis, especially if they really want to let Tyus Jones move on before the start of the year and Ja can’t get the suspension lightened.
Really think he will do well with consistent minutes and a full season of good health.
Thank you god. Been ready to move on from the Shake experiment for years.
Getting rid of these clowns that have caused us to consistently have one of the worst bench’s of the playoffs teams like Korkmaz and Milton is the beginning of a new era.
He can go put up 14ppg on a tanking team like OKC or something.
At least we still have Kork
In before shake has a hot run for 4 games in December. Leading to a bunch of pissy posts asking how we could let him go
Like the guy alot. He’ll expectedly the bag somewhere else, but low-key shake was one of my favorite players. I’ll miss him
Predictable but still makes me sad nonetheless, love Shake whenever he actually gets a chance
Good for him. He’ll get solid minutes he probably wouldn’t have gotten here. Nothing but the best!
Fine with that
Fuck Doc for not ever wanting to play Shake.
This makes me so sad, man. I was always a believer that he could put it together, but it’s impossible to produce if you never even get a chance.
man when he started off on that huge 3 point shooting streak.. fun times. Think it was against Doc too lmao. He’s a great player and i have a couple of his jerseys amazingly, good luck shake
No hard feelings, wish him nothing but success.
obviously, he’s too good to not play. We don’t have a rotation spot for him but a lot of teams will.
I’ll always love shake
I like Shake and think we could carve out a good role for him depending on how the Harden situation plays out.
Way too inconsistent to get important minutes on this team
Definitely going to be the Isaiah Joe of next year. Can’t wait to see his stat line after every game. That said, I like his game, I’ll be rooting for him
He just couldn’t get it going without building a rhythm from consistent minutes.
Hard type of player to sort because he’s at his best when he has big minutes but isn’t good enough to get big minutes on most teams. I’ll be watching his journey for sure
i have zero idea why but i have a soft spot for him it’s sad to see him leave
