I'm excited about Henry Sims being on the roster. Besides him, it will pretty much be a showcase for Burks, Kanter, Murphy and Carroll.

Still kinda disspointed because theres some nice guys with some potential who went undrafted

Nice. It is coming up next week.

I can't wait to see Kanter and Burks play.

Was really hoping shan foster who we aquired in the mo williams deal would get a chance to play. Ah well.

+1.
IMHO dude's got a real shot at becoming a good NBA big man. Great pick to take a look at, considering next season it's more than probable that one or two of our frontcourt guys leave the team.

And why no Peter Fehse!?!?!?

I wouldn't be shocked if Weaver makes his way back on the roster to replace Raja. Washington and Graham probably have a decent shot at making the roster as well.

Cedric Simmons could in in the Jazz plans as a back up big if we decide to move Al or Paul, remember he was someone the Jazz were interested in whennhe was being drafted.

Sadly we lost the rights to Tadidja Trajicovic in the deal. I was really looking forward to him contributing this year.

Simmons was a bust, and just had a disappointing season in Spain too. Plus he makes more than minimum, if anything Henry Sims has a better chance since he'd be cheaper.

Dragicevic and Fehse are not nba talent at all. Sims however is interesting.

Ahearn, Burks, Murphy, Carroll, Kanter. Not a bad lineup, maybe they could have win more games than bobcats...

I thought I was the only one.
