This Tweet, "Lakers made a mistake signing Danny Green. Shoulda signed Matt Thomas" funny thing is the Lakers had Matty Buckets on their summer league team and Matty Buckets shot lights out from 3 and never even received an acknowledgement from Magic.
He was as big of a reason for them winning that summer league title as anyone, and that was right out of college haha

the lakers loved thomas - they just had too many signed contracts to deal with and matt had a good deal in europe so he wasn't going to do the g-league thing. thus far has paid off for him.

IIRC the Lakers gave their 2-way contract to Alex Caruso. Sure Thomas would be perfect beside LeBron but Caruso is not a bad asset either.

Just like to thumb my nose at all the down votes I received saying Matty Ice would be a solid contributor/role player in the NBA.

Now back to the real recognition, great job Matt!

I'm not going through my history that far back. Have at her. Every time I use search function on this site it never works.

Give me an approximate time frame when you said it.

I think Thomas will get a serious look with his size and shooting ability. He has that work hard attitude and is always tuned in. I think he can play spot minutes and stay in the league a few years.
