Nate Robinson
Fellow The J Notes writer Ryan Aston already covered in detail the idea of bringing Nate Robinson on board to ease Utah’s backup point guard struggles and I certainly agree that he has the potential to be a good fit and is a guy that Jazz brass should keep their eyes on.
Say what you will about Robinson, but he has always been a player who gives 110 percent. He’s been a formidable backup with nearly every team he’s played for and has a determination and athleticism that have helped him perform above what many thought was possible.
If the Jazz were to add him, more than anything he would be a phenomenal spark plug off the bench, bringing energy and hustle much like Trevor Booker did last season, only Nate would do it while filling a desperately needed role as a backup point guard.
He’s also put up some big scoring games over the course of his career and has significant playoff experience with both Boston and Chicago so there are certainly a lot of positives that he would bring off the bench as a member of the Utah Jazz.
