Fran...

Sry to throw out another Fran thread, but I got to thinking. After watching the Cavs play this season and during the playoffs so far, I think Fran could end up being a good fit for us. If Fran does come over to play with the Magic, and "if" he ends up being the same type of player as Z I honestly would be very thrilled. Z though is slow and god ugly, he does have skill. He can shoot and rebound and if Fran has any likes of his game, I hate to admit it but I would feel good to have him here. Especially side by side to Dwight.

Also does anybody have Frans measurments?

His inseam is higher than average for a supposed "male." No homo.

lawl.

i was gonna say that i don't have fran's exact measurements, but i do think he wears an A cup.

all jokes aside, if fran comes here i don't think we can expect him to be anything like Z.

they're quite different.

Yeah, he's not much like Z....

From what I saw, Fran is extremely fast and athletic, but not really all that polished or smart.

And if he does come to the US it won't be until next year his buyout will cost him too much. Simple math and plus the way he acted before as in he wants the money, so he isn't going to part with it to come here so he will wait.

Expect him to play more like Michael Bradley than Big Z.

the best thing we can do with fran is include him in a trade

Hopefully they lower the buyout to a reasonable amount like they did to Juan Carlos Navarro so that he can come over. Might as well have another body over here and potential trade bait.

Fran is much more athletic and much less skilled than big Z. And a lot shooter too.

You'd be very disappointed then, cuz Fran could hardly play center in the NBA, he'd be a 10mins PT backup power forward at best. Time to see that pick as wasted and move on (same for Redick).

Mark my words...

Fran will end up coming over here within the next couple years and be a solid contributor. I see him as a Varejo or ZaZa type player (not because they are foriegn white guys...well, maybe). He seems more like a "dirty work type" player. It might be good for him to develop overseas and then get frustrated to see guys like Gortat hanging out with porn stars in the US. He will then break up with his girlfriend, come play for the Magic and go to the Dragon Room every weekend with Gortat to get...well, you know.

You might be asking yourself, "How does he know this? He is only a "Scout." Well, my friends, I had a dream, and dreams don't lie...
