kwame brown 

Post#1 » by ukjfazzfan » Sat Jul 10, 2010 6:07 am

Earlier this week I heard a report that the jazz had been in contact with kwame brown. Has anyone heard anything about this? How do you think he would fit with the jazz?

If sloan could make him into a player imagine the **** you to MJ for drafting him and Phil for not being able to caoch him. Sloan gets the most out of his players so hell why not? He's got size at least better then collins right?

Please, no. Whatever his attitude is, he's dumb as bricks.

Nobody can save Kwame, his hands and his BBIQ are both terrible.

At this point, I'll take him. We're desperate for size, and I don't care what Koufos does in summer league or the NBADL, he sucks and he sucks bad. He's not an NBA player.

I like his size and commitment to a rebounding/defensive roll (even though he isn't very good at it), but he is the wrong piece to backup our bigs. All of our current bigs (Jeffesron, Millsap, Okur, and probably Fesenko) are fairly big boned. None of them are lithe, fleet footed athletes. They have size and power (to varying degrees at least . . . Memo at least uses his weight to man up).

I want someone like Theo Ratliff (if he will really play). We need length and ups more than we need size and strength.

If the cost was equal I'd take Kwame over Collins.

That's not saying much. I'd pay for an empty roster slot before Collins.

Collins has very obvious weaknesses. But he is in the league for a reason . . . well two reasons to be exact: He's big and he can successfully play a specific role in a system (foul, and don't turn the ball over, and don't draw attention to yourself).

Kwame is also big and can foul, but he doesn't handle the assignments like Collins did. Let's all hope for something resembling a shot blocker at the backup 4/5 right now though.
