    What do you guys think about Rodney White?
    SF at 6'8 scored well for the nuggets in limited mins and can be had for 2-3 millions maybe even on long term contract.
    Let JVG teach him to play better defensively.
    Can turn to be James Posey without the long arms but with better offense.

    Yao
    Howard/MoT
    White/Jackson/Boki
    TMAC
    Barry/Lue/Ward

    I think the Nugs have plans for him. He's a good player, just needs to be given the chance on that team. He's going to be a backup banger/6th man type role.

    I really dont think so bc they want to sign Ginobli or Kobe
    and I cant see him playin behind Melo whose gonna play bout 40 mpg.

    He's long, unproven, cheap, and still YOUNG. Give him some mins and see what happens.

    We would not have a use for him and the Nuggets don't really need him...they have some kid named "Melo". Rodney wants to be a started and like s to shoot a lot. Can be a cancer on the wrong team

    I think he's the Charlotte Bobcats 2004-2005 leading scorer.

    He is a UNRESTRICTED FA so they cant match. Jackson is better suit coming off the bench with his vetern leadership and age. As part to shooting, everybody likes to shoot. Let JVG tone his game.

    hes really athletic, i think hes going to be an alright player, i would go after him if hes cheap, he would be better off the bench then piatowkaki.

    from what i heard, white cant play defense at all and possibly why he was traded from detroit i think during or after his first year. he has nice talent as an offensive player but i think he didnt get much playing time b/c of the other starters (nene and camby and melo) and making some mistakes
