Hate to see him go. He was always one of my favorites, no lie. The last of a dying breed.

Good luck in your journeys, Big Kat.

I'll miss him. Nice he gets to go home to Canada though.

I appreciate what Big Cat brought to the table. But I also appreciate that Riley is serious about getting/playing some fresh legs and more capable bigs moving forward. Thanks for knocking people around Jamaal!

I hope he doesn't injure any of our players next season lol. Like others, I'm going to miss him. Too bad he couldn't stick around for another season.

I'll miss having the Big Cat on the roster too. He seemed really well liked in the locker room and handled his stint like a pro.

There was always some excitement when Mags entered the game. Rebounds were about to be grabbed and bodies were about to hit the floor. Not necessarily in that order. :lol:

Thank you, Big Kat, for your support of our guys over the years, standing up for them, fouling hard, banging bodies down low, and grabbing rebounds. I know the crowd at the Triple A will give you a standing ovation when you step onto the court for all your dedication to this franchise. Now, you are home, we couldn't ask anything more of you.

Your last game during the regular season was great. You dropped twenty on the Raptors

Say it aint so!!!!

It sucks we couldnt get you that ring Big Cat.

Tbh, he's been one of my fav Heater in the past 2, 3 seasons or so. I was always on the "FREE BIG CAT" movement. Game was jus gonna get PHYSICAL everytime he steps in.

Remember that stretch where he was our starting center back in those days???

Gon miss you, Jamaal!

q: is jamaal still capable of being in an nba rotation? raps fan asking

DWadeno3 · Post #18 » by **DWadeno3** » Thu Dec 8, 2011 1:57 pm

It's sad to see him leave. He was a great character and a hard worker who never complained and understood his role. I wish he could've won a ring with us but hey, maybe he'll come back some time.

Post #19 » by **DefenseWins** » Thu Dec 8, 2011 2:12 pm

I actually liked this guy, he was funny to watch out there.

He just wasn't given the chance much.

Remember when he got 19 rebs or so against the Raptors? LOL

Watch him beat the crap out of us when we go up against the Raptors.

Not a rotation player anymore. He is more of a situational player at this stage of his career, mostly as an enforcer. But good guy to have on your bench (or knocking people down).
