OMG..

I usally dont care or have the patience to call people out...but you of all people making this comment..my god, the irony.

This is from page 12 of the Trades and Transaction Thread, Where i suggested we get Birdman because i felt he would fit and could help :

As much as i feel we desperately need to adress our biggest weakness and add a decent big man, looking at the numbers and thinking rationally, you have to figure that Kenyon Martin is NOT the answer.

Pros :
Very good defender

Cons:
Not really a good rebounder, Medicore at best
At this stage, almost as bad offensivly as Haslem and Joel
Not a Center
Supposedly a bad Locker room presence
Injury prone, very old for a PF, alot of mileage

That's not really much of an upgrade, we need to find something better.

Chris Andersen for example. if he's healthy and in Shape, could be very usefel for us

Cons:
Injury prone

Pros :
Good defender
Very good rebounder
Excellent Shot Blocker
Plays Center
effective and efficient on offense
would probably love to play here and appreciate the opportunity.

And just look who responded with total disregard to the idea :

jesus christ this board has turned to complete garbage over the last year. 80% of the posters on here just post complete nonsense and gibberish. stop looking at ridiculous per numbers and per36 rebounding numbers. whenever youre comparing a player to joel anthony to see how valuable he could be then id say that player wont be a significant upgrade. so what we lost to the knicks twice? last year we lost to the wizards twice and we lost to them again this year.

our team is fine. a little more production out of bosh in the rebounding department and some more consistency from chalmers/cole and well be golden. some of you are seriously thinking that a 8 minute a night bench scrub is gonna make a huge impact?

Yea, i really wonder where are the people who said bird wouldnt make a difference......

Oh, I have to admit I underrated Andersen. He's been great so far. ;]

But... maybe it's because of our bigs but I have this strange ipression that he looks better than in Denver... But yeah, once again, he's a HUGE pick up. Just keep it up Bird.
