Sacramento still needs another big man, preferably someone closer to 7', but on a minimum contract, or close to it, it's worth a shot to bring him in.
Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed.

$880k so it won't hurt much.

A total and complete steal for you guys, I really wanted him on the Wiz. I hope he's in the kind of shape that was reported in the Oregonian.

what does it hurt? it is a big reward, small risk move. He was a top draft pick and we are giving him a shot for the veterans minimum for only a year so he'll be off the books for next year! doesn't hurt at all.

Great signing by you guys. He's going to put up great numbers for you guys. Unfortunately after he gets his fat contract, he will resort back to his buffet ways, get injured, and put the weight back on. Mcmay has officially left Mickey D's for Burger King.

Given the fact that it's a 1 year min contract, no way you can complain with the signing. Now it's up to him to prove what he is.
This space needs to be filled with a new sig...but I'm too lazy to make one.

Not to rain on the party, but Sacramento's issues have been defense the last few years. Not sure how May will help, unless they are trying to lose fans support to have a better reason to leave Sacramento after another bottom feeding season.

Our defense is somehow gonna get worse thanks to a new backup :?

I have no opinion on May. We'll see how he does.

Hmmmmmm? So Sean May will throw the Kings out of Sacramento and making the team even worse? We are talking about the Same Sean May right? I dont see how one man, let alone Sean May the fat man bust, ruins the Kings ability to stay in Sac and compete. Maybe its me but its Sean May, you know?

As above, low risk/high reward. Also a LOT cheaper than Diogu is asking for about the same thing.
