God damn it. Where's Hendo when you need him?

Did we really need a 4th white power forward? Why are none of those white power forwards McBob?

From an actual basketball standpoint, we can definitely do worse for a 5th big. Unfortunately, now we have to see that **** face for 82 games.

Mbah a Boute woulda been a perfect signing that people around here could relate to. A defensive mind that can't score. Y'all love those players.

Exactly the way I feel. He should, and will be our backup 4 to start the season though.

This was a great signing. I'm just happy it's not Maxiell returning or one of the Collins brothers.

You realize we're about to start week 4 of free agency, right? There isn't much to choose from.

I don't see him playing over Frank or even Marvin. Seems like a straight depth signing to me.

Hansbrough is a roster spot and occasional energy. He's not rotation

I actually see Marvin and MKG splitting three and MKG getting run at 4 in small combos. A shooting Big can make that work

Never will forget this son of a bitch always wrecking Duke at Cameron.

Great signing though. I believe it was Fats who said he's way better than Maxiell, so that's a huge upgrade at least.

I think Marvin will receive some DNPs. He is just horrific defending the most important position in the league which is the 3. Unfortunately, at least right now I think Hairston may play over him if he can shed some weight.

Just not a big Marvin fan at small forward. Like him at the 4, but it's loaded there now.

I'm reaching. Just a hunch.

Sound like a shorter Zeller.

I thought after trading Hendo that we had come into the 21st century with our roster creation.

But it appears we're reverting back to the 50's by only signing white guys.

Me neither but he can kinda shoot. With the new players I think Clifford finds his 9-10 best regardless of position and then makes the lineups work. Enough versatility now to do that. Just Kemba and Al are married to a position.

The problem of starting Kemba, MKG, Cody, and Al is still the elephant in the room. Awful shooting that hasn't changed. It's not about who's best but what works best.
