I didn't think Ainge chose O'Bryant over Andersen. Because I read that Andersen wanted to sign with Denver. He likes Denver. Ainge might have wanted Andersen (or not wanted him enough), but he wasn't going to choose Boston.



With his colorful tattoos and spiky hair, Andersen was an instant hit with Denver fans, who’ve embraced his return to the court.

Andersen came back to the NBA in 2008 following a ban that lasted almost two years after he tested positive for an undisclosed “drug of abuse.”



Andersen began his career in Denver in 2001, before bolting to New Orleans three seasons later. He had a breakout season with the Hornets in 2004-05, only to have his career derailed by drugs.

Following his ban, Andersen returned to New Orleans late in the 2007-08 season, playing five games and blocking four shots.

Several teams offered him NBA minimum contracts before the 2008 season, but he elected to play in Denver, where he lives.

Yes! He is an ugly nerd trying to overcompensate!

I knew there was a reason why I could relate to the guy. Sign him up, Danny.

Before the ACL surgery Swift was becoming a pretty solid player all round. As a bench centre he would be well worth the risk. At the very least he has the size to be a brute off the bench to offer 6 fouls.
