Ellis writes: "The Pistons were seeking a positive influence on the bench, and Cheeks fits the bill. ... Much has been made of Cheeks’ influence on All-Star Russell Westbrook. He has been a calming influence on Westbrook, who has a combustible personality. It could rub off on third-year guard Brandon Knight. But think about Charlie Villanueva. Previous coaches have harped on Villanueva’s weaknesses -- namely his rebounding and defense. Cheeks’ personality will focus on Villanueva’s strengths -- shooting and scoring."
First of all Knight is not even comparable Westbrooks talent level..does Knight even have an ego or "combustible personsality?" And Charlie V?! He is such an insignificant piece to our roster. I have no idea how his name even came up.
