Sometimes I think Cliff would yell at Tristan Thompson to get his ass back on defense and leave the rebounds alone.

He finish around the rim better than Zeller? I know he score more points per 36 by like 3.

I mean some guy just tweeted "what's this mean for Zeller?" and I don't think it was catch.

I'd bet TH is a short-term backstop to a soon to be trade. Money on combo of Marvin, Hawes, Cody, PJ

Looks that way, though literally only 1/7th of Harrison's contract is guaranteed ($75k) so he can easily be cut.

Sh*t I wish I could make $75000 to get fired. not a bad gig.

I don't think we move Cody, at least not until we see Frank play an NBA game. And because we were over the cap when we signed him, we can't aggregate Hawes' salary with other players' for a few months. My money is still on Roberts/PJ/Marvin.

Just checking thru twitter, there is absolutely no middle ground with him, people LOVE him or HATE him. Nothing in between.

But why sign TH just to move those guys? That's getting rid of shooting for a non-shooter. Head scratcher

That's what I've been thinking as well. There's a lot of salary matching avenues we could go down using a combination of those three players, and moving any or all of them wouldn't affect our rotations much at all.

Well there weren't a lot of options at this point, FA is getting thin. I don't know that any of those guys will play much (maybe Marvin) so I don't see them moving the needle either way. Maybe trade a couple and then sign someone like Dorell Wright to backup MKG.

I'm OK with this ... but it was such a predictable move.

Yeah, I liked him too. Hope he latches on somewhere.

He is a massive upgrade over Maxiel, so for our 6th big, its a pretty good signing.

Every team needs an **** bruiser to throw some hard fouls occasionally. That role was vacated with us trading Henderson, so enter Psycho T.

I think he'll beat Frank out initially for playing time. At least till the all star break.

TH- 57% less than 5 feet
CZ- 55% less than 5 feet
