His salary goes to the vets minimun if waived.....(syke!!!) :lol:

Yea, you may as well keep him, or try to get what you can for him now. I was blown away whan I saw what he'll make over the next 3 years. He by far doesn't deaerve it.

When salaries kick in after the 13th round it's a wrap for even mentioning Brand's name.

You threw a curveball lol. I would have gone with a different player with your pick, but nonetheless a solid pick. He's a little old though...he played well in summer league, but it's summer league. Interesting pick, but a solid one considering he would be a part of the future.

I'm hoping with him being older, it will allow him to be more NBA ready, and with Przybilla injured til January, I think him and Frye could split time at center for the time being.


I think Rolle projects more as a PF than a C but in terms of athleticism, he's the package. I think he surprised a lot of people with how versatile he was in SL. The type of versatility that I don't think will be detrimentally impacted against real NBA players (quickness is quickness, hops is hops, dont' matter who you're going up against). Rolle has the potential to be a disruptive defensive presence...not so much in the paint but as a weakside shotblocker and a guy that can go out and guard the stretch fours easily on the perimeter and cause problems. He's best suited for an uptempo team where his great athletic versatility will be maximized. He does have a nice jumpshot as well so he's not totally just a dunk and nothing else type.

I more so since I traded him the pick (175) that he used to take Brand (along with 306) and got the 205 and 215 in return. I wasn't sure who he was after at 175 but definitely didn't think it was Brand.

Miami still looking to deal. Anything reasonable will be entertained.

You just gave him to me...

But maybe, he could be. I don't have any untouchables besides David West. (He's one of my favorite players in the NBA)

Yea, he is more of a PF, but I think in limited time, he can play Center, at least til January comes along. Him and Frye are not ideal centers, but I think both can play it for the time being until Przybilla is back from injury.
