Official Speculation Thread (Pt. XLV "Re-Building" Edition)

Why? I though BBD held his own against the top 3 center in the league.

We lost 4 of 5 while he put up numbers... he did as well as we could have hoped against a giant. But if I recall correctly the Pacers got whatever they wanted after game 1. A fat, short center can only do so much on a bad team. Baby won't last a full season going 100% starting at C and that would work in our favor... at least that's what I'm thinking.

Maybe i misread, but when people say they don't want Baby starting at C and he doesn't belong there... seems to me they're thinking about trying to win or something. Isn't our goal to lose in the most entertaining way as possible while developing players?

you can still develop players without using a gimmick like playing a guy out of position....just regulate the minutes....

is Vucevic a Traditional Center? no hes more of a Mehmet Okur Perimeter shooting Center than a Tim Duncan Post up guy.

who do you guys think the other casualties will be? Could it be Redick? Could it be Harper? I think we have way too many Forwards something has got to give....

Definitely JJ come the deadline. I'd say Harrington and McRoberts too.

I feel bad for Harper. Placed in such a bad situation. He's going to get short changed here unless he comes to camp out playing guys. I know he was trying to adjust to the SF spot, but unless Hedo is dealt, he'll be burried on the bench.

i think Henny will want to take a Good Look at him in the Regular season so im sure he will have JV give him some time. i think between Harper and Harkless that their might not be any minutes left for hedo and q

Was that Chattanooga PG camp invite legit? Haven't been able to look into it.

Didn't sound like an invite, sounded like he was asked to play 3rd string pg for some game tonight, D-league or anything going?

I think D-League runs on a similar schedule to the NBA...

Vucci can post up....let's put it this way his post game is better than Dwight's at the same age so i think Vucci will be fine....he's taller than Dwight in shoes....260 lbs with room to get stronger and more importantly he's really long....7"4 wingspan so his post shots rarely get blocked....he's only 21 going into his second year so he is promising....just so happens that he has a nice looking jumper but that jumper doesn't define him.....he himself says he patterns his game after Pau Gasol....Pau as we all know has that Inside/Outside ability....

Didn't take SVg long to start dissing the magic in the national media.

I know its disgusting i think that tool is trying to get a job at espn and good for him i hope he goes there and pisses off a bunch of people till he gets fired because he cant deal with people. He deserves alot of blame himself because it was his stupid media stunt that was the last straw and ruined Dwight's confidence in front office

yes but ive seen him Listed more at 240 which IMO is a Tad Small for a Center and also Pau Gasol is Much more of a PF than Center.

BBD playing C for a entire season? = http://www.jokes2go.com/top-100-jokes.html

The guy have asthma, cant even survive 40 minute in the court.

I prefers Kyle/BBD or Vucevic/BBD.

Check DraftExpress they almost always have the right measurements.....off the top of my head i believe in shoes he's listed at 6'11.75 which is basically a 7 footer so he's fine size wise at Center....just has to get stronger....

im not complaining about his Vertical size. i just dont think 240 pound guys Can play center in the NBA for 30 mins a game or so.

on NBA.com hes listed at 240 pounds. he should be able to pack on some More Muscle which in turn should make him him bigger

BBD playing C for a entire season? = http://www.jokes2go.com/top-100-jokes.html

The guy have asthma, cant even survive 40 minute in the court.

I prefers Kyle/BBD or Vucevic/BBD.

A man walks into a pharmacy, buys a condom, then walks out of the store
laughing hysterically. The pharmacist thinks this is weird, but, hey, there's
no law preventing weird people from buying condoms. Maybe it's a good thing.

The next day, the man comes back to the store, purchases another condom, and
once again he leaves the store laughing wildly. This piques the interest of
the pharmacist. What's so funny about buying a rubber, anyway?

So he tells his clerk, "If this guy ever comes back, I want you to follow him
to see where he goes."

Sure enough, the next day the laugher is back. He buys the condom, starts
cracking up, then leaves. The pharmacist tells his clerk to go follow the
guy.

About an hour later, the clerk comes back to the store.
"Did you follow him? Where did he go?" asks the pharmacist.
The clerk replies "Your house."
