Look out Eastern Conference, we have our center!! Nothing gonna stop us now! :roll:

Hey MJ. While you are at it, how about trading Crash for Sean May! Hell, just go back to the golf course and leave the FO to do their job.

Wait a minute. The roster indicates we already have 15 players. I wonder if this means we are merely going to cut Dampier and sign Brown? Dampier is a heck of a lot more productive than Kwame. What the heck is going on in Charlotte's FO? We can cut Dampier and resign him for something reasonable which is far preferable to signing Kwame Brown!

This is not a bad move... Kwame is at least twice as serviceable as Diop.

Seriously, we are a humiliating team to root for sometimes.

I just have to think the FO is about to either cut Dampier before this signing, or there is a trade already in the works. We have 15 under Contract already, and this would be our 4th Center. Something else has to happen before this signing can be done.

it its pretty damn funny. and its certainly not the big move we hoped for, but for the money its a good deal. he's better than diop.

pretty sure this paves the way for us to cut damp. i'm hoping we can still try to resign damp to a cheap deal.

we are going to cut Dampier. book it.

nugentrk · Post #15 » by **nugentrk** » Mon Aug 23, 2010 7:00 pm

then I guess one of these guys might be cut, Dominic McGuire, (Sherron Collins, Derrick Brown). if we don't make that trade.

edit...scratch that, Erick Dampier is not much better than Kwame Brown

Yup, Sign Kwame and Cut Dampier to get under lux tax... and the team will stay as is after that.

Worst off-season EVER!!!

Please let it be "Who Da ****"!!!

But isn't his contract guarantee?

Dampier is MUCH better than Kwame Brown. It's not even close

Post #19 » by **Paydro70** » Mon Aug 23, 2010 7:11 pm

Dampier is a much better player than Kwame. He's better at everything... rebounding, shot blocking, man D, and it's a .600 eFG% player vs. a .500.

We're a joooooooooooookeeeeeeeeee

you speaking badly of our new starting center...Kwame Brown will resurrect his career this year.
