good signing, I guess, if he's still what he was before. tough guy, good rebounder, plays bigger than he is (a good model for some of the other bigs)

he just led his team to the CBA finals

i think he's got enough game, but this ensures that Booker shuts it down the rest of the season

like others here, I really liked him

he does give some concern about the tank though
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression

About time. Grunfeld should have kept Cartier Martin and James Singleton from last season. They actually contributed compared to this year's guys like Maurice Evans.

Well this just makes the name of the D League thread wildly inappropriate.

Maybe he's developed a jump shot?

Nice to have him back. Maybe he can give the kids a few hints on rebounding.

Should have never let him go. He's the guy that motivated Blatche, right?

I hope it works again, the other Singleton could learn a few things from him too.

Nice signing. EG has made some good little moves and a pretty good big move lately. Kudos.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Bump

If we are going to do this. Then lets do this.


Bring Back James Singleton
http://www.asia-basket.com/team.asp?Cntry=CHN&Team=4369

They should be wrapping up their season over there soon.

Feb. 27, 2013 Round 1 (Quarter-Finals ) Xinjiang FT-Liaoning H.

Can we get another one of those petitions started :wink:

They should have kept him two seasons ago. Instead we have losers like Vesely and Seraphin taking up roster spots. Ridiculous.

He'd certainly increase our chances of acquiring the 8th seed this year

Sometimes it's a bad idea to open old threads.

Somebody might not realize it's an out-dated thread - considering there wouldn't be much reason to open an old thread with maybe 10 posts in it.
