Did Cato even play last year? I dont think he did. I will say this, if Cato is in reasonable shape and conditioning, he is better than Foyle. The problem is that I doubt that he would stay in shape, he made it known that basketball is not his life.

Its Dale Davis isnt it thief.

I'd have to say based on averages, his first season with us in 04 was his 2nd best.. 7ppg,7rpg,1.5bpg in 24mpg. He's a solid backup kind of guy. I wouldn't mind him, if like everyone said he is in shape. We need bulk in the playoffs, and bulk is Cato at 6'11 275-280..

I believe the only reason he was dealt was because he was expiring, and the Magic thought Milicic and Arroyo may have been a boost in their rebuilding plan.

I think it's the Kandi Man, we're officially on the bust-loving bandwagon after the Foyle resigning, Olo's not too old and he can be effective in those 5min critical moments. And btw where's garrity? He had one of his best seasons last year...

Also, the thread's title should be changed after Thief totally hijacked it :P

The reason I was high on Crit was the idea of him improving and learning from AJ quick enough to be able to contribute. Plus, I would not necessarily expect him to be effective this year however I know he would be our future PG and at 6'5 he would overcome the lack of height from JN and AJ.

Rony Seikaly was my first jersey ever. When he played on the Magic, BTW. It was the black pinstripe.

I would never wear another team's jersey.
