"This is what I've dreamed of, especially not getting an opportunity last year," Law said. "Now I'm about taking care of business, doing my job and being a pro. I'll take no day for granted. I think I've found a home here. I just feel like if I work hard every day it'll work out for me."

Good bull. The man's work ethic is second to none. Wish him luck!

Lot of love for Law in the comments section. I always thought he could be a Derick Fisher type. Not supremely talented, but smart, hardworking, and CLUTCH.

Hope he catches on.

Acie Law IV has not done real well, and I would say the writing is on the wall that he doesn't make Christmas with the team. I cringe when I see him on the floor, and as a Grizz fan, that is saying a lot.

Grizz bringing in a couple of PGs to work out, including former Spurs sub Garrett Temple, claiming "nothing to see here".

This season, Acie is 3-18 & 0-6 from 3 point land. He has 14 assists to 10 TOs. 4 steals.

Those stats are flat out bad. I wish it wasn't so, but he just doesn't seem to have the right skillset for the NBA.

Acie Law waived.


Reportedly, Law walked away with $500,000. Before being supplanted by rookie Greivis Vasquez as the backup point guard, Law appeared in 11 games. He struggled through 16-percent shooting and averaged 1.3 assists in 8.5 minutes.

That's probably about it for his career. I don't see him making another squad with his numbers. He's just not a good NBA player. Too bad, but he made a few million and it was a good ride while it lasted

If he was smart about the money he could retire, and live a comfortable life playing golf and fiddling around with his hobbies.

I wish him all the best but I'll stop short of feeling sorry for him. If he really wants to play basketball he could probably catch on with some European team.

Jeff Adrien will likely be released, not Lin.

More confirmation of the move.
