Hes gonna slay on Miami beach. That hair, that bod...
That was my first thought too. I feel like he's one of those guys, like your dude Crowder, whose impact on actually winning basketball games is discounted by casual fans because his game isn't aesthetically pleasing and because a relatively large part of his value is derived from things that doesn't really pop up in the box score- things like spacing, screen-setting, and team defense. Godspeed Kelly, I think he caught more shit from fans than he deserved based on his play, plus he always seemed like a good teammate and a fun guy who really enjoyed doing the community outreach stuff.I'm glad he's not going to BKN to be really honest.
Not often I hear Kelly O compared to Jae Crowder for reasons other than hair.That was my first thought too.

Great fit for their offense, fine defensive fit next to their small handful of bigs, and a good value deal to boot. Glad they're all in on RFAs again instead.I'm glad he's not going to BKN to be really honest.
