Worst case scenario: He's our sixth big behind KG, Perk, Powe, Davis, and Scal.

We have that luxury of having one great big and four more decent bigs where we can take a chance on a guy like Moore's impact on the team. No one better is going to get bought out in time.

We still need Joe Smith or someone of equal or better talent. Hopefully, a few surprises will pop up on the waiver wire this week.

I think if this signing happens is worthless.

This guy will not help us....in any key way.

He will sit on the bench come playoff times a la Sam Cassell.

He will not help us in the playoffs a la PJ Brown.

He also will not help us any better than Big Baby or even Patrick O'Bryant if he were still on this team.

We really should sign someone who can be a difference maker for us in these 2-3 weeks that KG is out.

The post doesn't even warrant a response, but just to play along, who should they sign?

Our biggest weakness right now is a lack of length off the bench. That is what Mikki Moore gives us. He is 7 ft tall with a motor. Much of the time, Big Baby (who has completely exceeded my expectations!) and Leon Powe give us what we need at PF and C positions. But against LA we need somebody to put a hand in Gasol's face and neither Powe nor Davis have the height to get that done.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

^^The case in point last night, however, was the play where Leon went up for a contested layup and missed it. Baby got the rebound and promptly got his ass stuffed when going back up to put it in (nothing new there, he can't jump for ****). Leon got the board and jumped up from a stand-still to jam it home. Baby is too short but unlike Leon he cannot jump. This is where Moore will help us.
It's still 17 to 11!!!!
