Cartier Martin for the rest of the season???

[ALong13]

Heard the announcers talking about him during the game, and didn't hear the exact quote, but thought they said something about us signing Martin for the rest of the season after his 10-days are up....I for one like the idea...I don't see him scoring double digits or anything, but a nice 6-8 points off the bench is a nice thing to see...plus he picked up 3 or 4 rebounds tonight as well...

It wouldn't cost much, and i think would be a nice signing...plus we got an extra spot now that we did the 2 for 1 trade with the Lakers...I think he could be a more consistent and better Shannon Brown...energy wise...

They mentioned that you have to sign him for the rest of the season or waive him after a 2nd 10 day contract. I think he'll be signed for the rest of the season.

I really like what Ive seen so far but he needs to chill on the fouls a bit...

[TattoodCatswife]

I think he is an okay player and that it wouldn't really hurt us to sign him.

[spectre]

Absolutely. He actually tries to play within the offense instead of trying to prove he can score.

And he can score!

It's looking like a no brainer to me.

Agreed spectre. From day 1 he has shown himself to be comfortable on the floor while not trying to do too much. He's a solid player and we need to maintain depth at that position.

I not only hope we sign him now, but hopefully if we dont land a big FA and fill the roster in that way, maybe we could give him a low rent contract for like 2 year at 1.5 mil (bit more than minimum) with a team option for 3rd year, but im not sure what options you have when negotiating contracts and the like... but he is worth more than league minimum.

exactly, he seems very comfortable to me. aside from the fouls he doesn't seem to prone to mistakes in the offense, he seems confident i like him. it would be nice if he tried to drive the ball in more, so far he has only been hanging outside on the the 3pt line. but overall, it's a nice pickup off the bench and he is actually productive (unlike some of the other bench players we've had this season....may/carroll/ammo)

Yeah, seeing him play in the d-league he kept dunking and everything and we haven't seen that side of him yet here..I'm sure it will come out eventually though

can't hurt at all with 2 open roster spots. larry wants bench depth, i don't see why martin can't contribute a little bit. he seems like a low risk signing and has the potential to have a crazy 15-20 pt. output game every once in awhile. once gerald comes back, this team looks to be solid with some good depth coming off the bench to spell the starters.
