“I’ll probably need to gain some weight, playing inside’’ Diaw said after practice Tuesday, as news broke that Brown wouldn’t be back. “I was on the verge of losing some weight.

i never thought we'd hear those words

what the hell are we going to do about center?

perhaps diaw and diop can do some kind of fat tranfusion. how hard can it be? suck some fat out of diop and injected it into diaw. sounds totally doable, right?

this thread needs pics.

What's up with Troy Murphy? Wasn't too long ago he was a near double double guy with a big body and a nice Jim shot with range.

I'm sure we will bring in some min salary vet to give us a 6 hard fouls.

To be honest, I don't think having Diaw at center versus Kwame will cost us a single victory this season.

So Diaw, Bismack and Diop become our FrankenCenter?

Diaw himself has said we need a center

I was on the verge of losing some weight.

NOW this thread needs pictures. I surely hope the arm parts would be Bismack's.

People like to dog Diaw, including me, but you have to applaud him for being such a team player. I mean the guy literally does whatever the team calls for. Most guys, in his position, would never consider playing center. It's kind of refreshing in the current NBA.

Anyway, if we can get Biz in here we will be just fine. Might as well throw all the young guys out there. Hell I'm even fine with Diaw at C because it will give Tyrus a chance to start, and that will help our future.

Biz and then either Thabeet or Aldrich or Hawes or Anthony Randolph or Speights or Sheldon Williams or Dexter Pittman or Courtney Sims or Fez.

Those are my most realistic nominations.

WAIT A MINUTE!!!

How could I forget Sean Williams??? We should sign Sean Williams!!

What would it take to bring Theo Ratliff out of retirement and to play 12 minutes every other game!? Maybe it doesn't matter if he's currently not in shape right now. We could use him. Ratliff is greater than Tyson Chandler.

Oh god, not Diaw at center, I would rather have Thomas at Center then Diaw..... Good Lord no. We need to hire Thabeet or someone and ressurect their career like we have with our past 2 centers.

Would really love Speights. He's a good young player that is more of a face to the basket player but someone we could use.

What's the deal with him, are the Sixers trying to deal him?

Dig deeper. There are Hollins and Lexy. I can't get how some Cats fans would be ok with them. I would rather take flyer on someone new than trying someone I already know. I know that as we are gonna suck this season, the goofieer bench players the better but ... I had enough of these. I like to root for players when there is slim chance they would pan out and get better. I donT' see it with Lexy.

yes, the Sixers are shopping him around.

I liked Mutumbo's Fesenko idea, but . . .

I thought I read over the weekend that he had signed on as a camp invite somewhere?

maybe this C crisis is the final reason to trade DJ?

DJ to Dallas for Mahinmi + Dominique Jones?

(Jonathan Givony on Dom Jones: "Looking for a poor man's John Wall? Take a look at Dominique Jones. He tied with Wall for longest wingspan among point guards in the 2010 class at 6-9 ¼, and measured out a half an inch taller as well. Jones is getting more and more buzz as we predicted in an article a few weeks ago, which highlighted him as one of the biggest sleepers in the draft." http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Dom ... ones-5052/

Maybe we'll bring back Ghostface Pryzbilla and Mexicat.
