how’s everyone gonna say he sucks when he put 19 and 10 in the D-League? thats good enough for top guard in the league, and we’ve seen D-league guys make an impact in the NBA.

Everyone loves Mateen Cleaves, but he sucks.

He’ll be a good citizen. Maybe even play some D when called upon. Not a great move, but not a bad move, either. Whatever he may or may not do on the court, he doesn’t exactly scream “locker room cancer”. Plus, 19 and 10 in the D-League? He must have learned how to shoot a J somewhere…

How has Cleaves never had a legit chance to succeed in the NBA? He’s been on a bunch of NBA rosters and never showed he was anything more than a 3rd string PG. That’s all he will be in Denver, as well.

I gotta believe Dajuan Wagner is better than Cleaves, even at this point. What about LYNN GREER??? Tyrone Barley who played with Delonte & Jameer at St Joes??? He won a MVP across the water in some league… What about Keydren Ke-Ke Clark??? He put up 51 overseas last season.

I was at msu when this dude was in his prime, everyone there worshipped this cat. I was always wanted to run in to him and bust him in a pick up game up there;never got the chance though. Really he was just strong and a decent floor leader for the college game, didn’t have enough for the league though….at least he’s trying though…

Mateen Cleaves?!?!? WTF?!?! I would go down the block and get Terrell Brandon (bad knees an all) right now if that’s that case!! Are the point guards trying to get in the L, that terrible to where you go get an ancient flint-stone like Cleaves? I was trying to like Denver, but their moves in the last few months rival some of the worst moves ever!!

Mateen Cleaves is like the Susan Lucci of basketball…
When is he ever gonna quit????
My goodness…what favours do NBA GM’s owe his agent for him to perennially get burn in training camp or the regular season? Anyone on the bubble of making the L…heck any player in the league should get this guy’s agent to represent them! He could get Marvin Williams a max deal for goodness sakes. No worries even if Cleaves sticks he’ll probably be dropped at some point.
All joking aside…I give Cleaves props for NEVER EVER giving up on a dream. You go Mateen.
