Derrick Brown
Should we sign him back when the CBA is agreed?? He was ****** that we traded him & he wanted to come back....What would it cost to get him back contract wise?? Is he playing overseas during the lockout??

I agree with Fatleaver. If we go out, and just sign a guy who is going to factor little in our overall plans it needs to be a big point guard or extra fouls at center.

Re: Derrick Brown
But are we sure Cunningham is a better player?? If so agreed but if not why not take a chance on Derrick again??

Re: Derrick Brown
Cunningham has shown a fair bit more. Brown could jump and dunk, but we didn't see much more

Was that because Larry wouldn't let him?? I've got faith in Derrick & he wanted to be here which to me is very important.
Cunningham's mid-range game is a lot better but Derrick got more post game from what I've seen.

Re: Derrick Brown
I like Derrick Brown, he's pretty cool. Not very good at basketball though.

^^^ This. I wonder if Larry Hughes is still in shape.

I'm sure you guys haven't seen his workout videos but he is certainly looking real good during the off-season.

Yeah I heard that too, then saw it on realgm. I'm sure he'd be more useful to someone else but maybe he'd wanna play here for some reason.

I assumed he was ring chasing but assuming his history with both us & Paul Silas maybe he'd sign for us, contract wise I hope it would only be the vets minimum.
