Nets best option at the Vets' Min. Knicks wouldn't hesitate to sign him.

i was literally coming here to make this post haha... i think he would be an awesome backup center and defensive option to offset the rest of our bigs

can he stay on the court?

between injuries and off court issues, im not sure he can.

32,5,76,71,45,32

thats his games played the last several years.

was the center of a police investigation as a litte as 3 months ago.

honestly at vet minimum id take the chance. could be a great hype guy for the new arena regardless.

As far as the police investigation is concerned, apparently it was an extortion attempt by his ex-gf or something. Still though, Birdman has a pretty bad track record, and that's the reason why he's still available. As far as production goes, he's the best option available right now, easily.

I've been touting Andersen for weeks.

Pryzbilla doesn't seem interested in us, and while Oden could be a good long-term investment for a two-year minimum deal, he may not return this season. That leaves Birdman, and I think his energy, rebounding, shot-blocking and fast-break finishing would be a spark off the bench. He'd be the yin to the very yang Lopez. Plus, keeping him away from NYK would be a coup, even though they already have Camby and Novak as backup bigs.

I'd take him at this stage if no one else is available.
