Do we need a starting/backup C?

Honestly all we need a powerful 4. Somehow if we got a strong smart strapped 4 like Gooden he would have been perfect as a interim 5 or backup 5. Drew Gooden can ball!!

Hayes will get his minutes back now.

Maybe we should have kept Bonzi for some more low post scoring.

Crap.

Wang ZhiZhi, anyone?

maybe opponents will subconsiously think he's Yao in the paint?

Mutombo's grandmother is the same age as he is?

Man. I think T-Mac is destined to never make it outta the first round.
I can still see them making the playoffs.

Scola has shown flashes that he can be a decent option down low so look for his role to be expanded.

Id say they put in Deke for about 15-20 mins a game and give Landry a lot more minutes. Also it looks like Chuck Hayes is gonna get his minutes back after losing them to Landry recently.

il stick to my man justin will., he's an underrated rebounder, a beast. give him 30+ mins playing time "with the right team" he'll produce 10-11 reb. per game

We only have 4 guys capable of playing big now: Mutombo, Hayes, Landry, and Scola. We need another guy capable of playing C just in case one of our other bigs doesn't match up well.

Man I wish C-Webb wouldn't have decided to sign with the Warriors. Seems like he'd fit in right now with Yao out.

Vlade Divac just turned 40.
I wonder how his back is doing?
At least he knows Adelman's offense.

Come on, he's just a bit younger than Deke.
Seriously though, isn't he really ill?
If we sign him, he'll have to play on a wheelchair.

he's 20 months younger than Deke actually.
he looks younger now that he's shaved his hideous beard

dunno what illness you're referring to but he sounds like he's keeping himself pretty busy with investments since retiring http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlade_Divac
