    Six points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 block against the Hawks in 15 minutes on February 6, 18 for Wright. That is fine, apart from
    the boards. Capela lite at age 30 years, with experience.

    This is a great signing. I've liked Wright for a while. Much better than any other big available. A bit better as a PF than a C but that's ok.

    What a great pick up. Was definitely hoping we get a big man and did not imagine it would be this good.
    Is this guy right with us cutting Black? Kind of awkward seeing he’s playing this game.
    Kind of liked Black but oh well. Always loved Wright’s game.

    Now we go out and get Joe and in the meantime I'll start planning how I'm going to afford these Finals tickets.

    Good signing if it goes through. Capela light. Grizz fans will tell you he was a softie in the paint though.

    I don't know, his defense numbers have looked pretty good the last few years. I know he's coming here as the third string C, but won't shock me to see Nene lose his job. Nene has looked slow on offense and defense.

    I remember he used to kill us when he was with the Mavs. Solid pick up.

    They should waive him. Go for another waiver wire. This is the year. If you can get someone better, u let the bench warmers go.

    Will be an excellent pick up for the Rockets.
    13.6 mins, 5 pts, 3.4 rebs is still excellent production from the 30 y/o

    Another efficient type player Morey likes. No need for Bogut or other big body signing.
    Nene can rest down the stretch more. Unfortunately T Black will probably be released
    so that Joe Johnson can sign.
