Not bad for a 3rd center and injury insurance

Nice, the Lopez brothers are fantastic teammates.

Probably means Moe Wagner won't be resigned.

He was fine with the Wizards this past season. So long as he doesnt take too much play time from Carter and Bamba this should be okay.

He's a tough vet who plays for the team. Exactly what we need

$5M isn't third stringer money.

I have a suspicion that Bamba's tenure is about to come to an end.

Good insurance at lower price and a 1 year deal. This is why you shouldn't draft limited bigman high....ahem Bamba....you can find rather cheap center help, this deal and the Birch signing.

We have two injury prone centers.

I do see one specific locker room issue though...

Watch on YouTube

*Maybe* they overpaid for a pure leadership type of piece, but I'm very skeptical.

Yeah. This signing doesn't make sense otherwise. He has no positional versatility. He makes too much money. He isn't who you sign if he is only there in case of an emergency. This one doesn't make sense to me.

a non playoff team HAS to over pay for a vet.

Also, doesn't Robin have a house in Disney??

Lmao why??? He better not be starting here or taking any big minutes away from the young guys. 15-20 min a night at back up center once bamba is traded lol..
