Like I said, not much... I know that, but in retrospect, here were/are some of the players which would likely be more useful for this team than Shard:
Reggie Evans - This dude rebounds better by himself then the whole Heat team combined. I love his attitude on the boards. He's a type of joker player you throw in when you're getting out-hustled and out-rebounded and he immediately helps. Although I don't know if he was willing to come here.
Ben Wallace - Old as dirt but still has a something in the tank. Definitely an upgrade over Pittman, Jorts, JJ, Shard and anyone else not playing.
Kenyon Martin - We've discussed this all too much lately.
Leon Powe - If he could stay healthy it would be interesting too see what he can do
That's about it for big men... As far as guards are concerned there really weren't any useful ones (except for Anthony maybe) but nobody expected Chalmers too play this poorly so we weren't even looking.
