Asik or Kaman would be a good fit. Asik is not available though is he? I mean might as well say Taj Gibson. He'd be good here too.

If we get Kaman it's over. Which is why of course we probably won't get Kaman.

This scrub who can't defend chooses a crappy team. Boo hoo. In a few years when he's begging to be on a contender no one will even consider him.

Via Ira's twitter

"Joel Przybilla, to the Oregonian, on his intense courtship by the Heat, "They were first class. You can tell they are on top of things. And trust me, it was a tough decision to turn them down." He instead agreed to terms with the Trail Blazers. "

"So much for the Heat being content in the middle. Joel Przybilla told the Oregonian he spent three days in South Florida last week being recruited by Pat Riley. "

Pat really tried, but I think it's best he turned us down.

Part of the reason I want the Heat holding that Larry O'Brien trophy in June is to say F*** you to Dalembert and now to Przybilla as well.

Kidding aside, you cant blame Joel P. Wish him the best for his career

Same here. I respect his decision. It was probably best for his family to not travel too far away from home (Milwaukee), and going to someplace where they have already settled (Portland). Wish Pryz the best, I like the Blazers, so not too many butt hurt feelings from me.

Agreed it was purely a family decision...

Must of been hard to turn Miami down.
