I'm all for it. Though I think given his history with addiction, Miami may not be the most suitable location for his talents.

Is it necessary to make a thread for every FA available? I thought thats what the offseason thread was for. Look at the first page of the forum, threads for Anderson, Andray Blatche, Denzel Bowles?? and Darko Milic..c'mon guys really?

Damn it. These Ballboys need to stop making threads for everything. We already have a discussion on birdman on the FA thread.

Birdman might insist this as our new intro music. Because he's on crank.

Problem is the "offseason" thread is clogged with people repeating the same thing over and over. With a thread like this you can just discuss one player and then it'll drop down the board and away.

I'd take a look at Andersen. He didn't get much burn last season because of injury and the deep roster Denver had. If his injury isn't a problem he's worth taking on. He'll accept spot minutes and can defend the rim better than anyone we have.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

yea we should conserve server space, we don't want realgm to get overloaded do we?

on a serious note, i don't mind these threads. it's a lot easier than looking through an 80 page thread for conversations on a specific player.

i approve this thread.

I totally agree I hate shifting through hundreds of pages of **** to find what I'm looking for. I want to be able to just read the title and click on it and read about it. No idea why people complain about threads like this but if you like your 80 page thread why don't you just stay their and leave these types of threads for the people who appreciate them.

what happened with his child pornography investigation?

that gives me caution. I dont really want him here if there is any merit or justification for his home being raided a few months ago.

It wasn't his child porn investigation if I remember. It was someone who was staying at his house. I don't think Andersen was being investigated himself. Just his property.

Chris Andersen would be AWESOME!!!!!

He's Joel if Joel could hold on to the ball and get defensive rebounds!

There's nothing wrong with making individual threads for important topics.

I think the point was, its kind of nonsensical to have a thread for every single free agent available. Look at this thread alone, the responses range from "meh" to "Why is this thread here?".

When I see a guy's name on here and his own thread, I expect a link of some sort connecting them to Miami. The second I realize its just another masturbatory free agent/trade scenario, I close the thread. Hell even the Oden thing at the very least had a small link to Miami.

But it's worth you posting twice in a thread your denouncing.

Aren't you the Philly supporter? who kpt writing about them in threads that weren't Philly threads?

When you look at the pure stats, Chris andersen is the clear cut best option from the names mentioned around. but my concern is that his stats might be bloated due to playing the fast paced style Denver plays. plus he's the oldest option, injury prone.
