The only thing I like about him is that maybe Deron wants him on whichever team he signs with.

My counterpoints would be:
1. Fans often have irrational loathing for useful players when they don't live up to their expectations.
2. He's 25.
3. He's only played in one system. Some guys just need a different kind of system to take a step forward.
I completely agree with _c's assessment; he wouldn't be anything to get too excited about, but if his interested in Dallas and the Mavs gets him here on a low end contract, I'd be pretty happy to have him.
