He's kind of like Austin Croshere, except not as good. He plays with heart and he is not afraid to hit the big shots. Unfortunately, his field goal percentage isn't that great. He played with the Warriors last year, so if you want to know more ask their board.

Pretty much. Is 6-9 and scrappy on the boards...good work ethic..shot 39% from 3 but lacks the hops to score much in a crowd. Decent depth guy.
CENSORED... No comment.

Kurz accepted our invite to come to training camp. Looks like he will be competeing for the 15th spot on the roster, and should win it.

meh. I would have preferred to bring in a third PG, but it's hard to complain about bringing him in as the 15th man I guess.....

Kurz will probably compete with Jawad Williams for the spot-up shooter role that Wally Sczerbiak had last year. With Lebron and Shaq commanding the double teams, perimeter shooters who can make the open shots will be important. Who knows, maybe both Kurz and Williams will make the final 15.

Super SCRUB - no joke.
So, Mo. You're sure the Cavaliers will win Game 4 on Tuesday night and rally to win the best-of-seven series. Willing to guarantee it?

"Guarantee we're going to win the series? Yeah, yeah,"

Whoops...

I wouldn't mind seeing Kurz get the spot over Jawad and then bringing in a PG for a spot. Russel Robinson seems like a good addition.

Mo/Boobie/Robinson
Delonte/Parker/Green
Bron/Moon/Kurz
AV/JJ/DJ/Powe
Shaq/Z

I wouldn't mind that at all. I actually think Kurz can turn into a decent role player in the league- nothing special but someone who could get about 10 minutes a game in the future. Robinson is a defensive presence and would at least make Boobie work during practice when he's handling the ball.
