Not tryin to start something since we are playin the Kings tomorrow, but if he could get bought out and signed here, he would be an upgrade over Adonal Foyle imo. I told him good luck and I think it caught him off guard. Maybe he'll remember me more that way.

thats pretty cool, first time ive heard of non magic players working out there not during the offseason...

This is not surprising to me. He was working out with Chris Webber before he signed with the Warriors. He's trying to revitalize his career

Eh, it's not surprising.... Thomas and the Kings shooting trainer were working on Thomas' jumpshot (Which disappear for over a year). Even though, Thomas isnt in the Kings future (Which is evident due to DNPs) Thomas has been handling this situation like a true professional...He is those type of players that need a new situation (team). He could be very solid PF if he is given a chance...

Samaki Walker used to work out at RDV year round, even when he was on San Antonio, etc. There were even rumors that he'd sign here just so he could be closer to the gym.

Kenny Thomas is 6'8'' in highheels. No way he is going to replace Foyle as our backup center...even if he is slightly better.

Thomas is cursed by being too short, he'd be a very good player if he were a few inches taller.

If only they'd buy him out.
