    Now that Duncan has retired, is Pepperoni the oldest player in the league?

    Has Andre Miller officially retired, yet? He's older, but a UFA right now with the Spurs, too.

    Vince, Garnett and Miller are older. Pepperoni is 4th.

    I like the signing. I just hope the old mans still got some gas in the tank.

    Thanks. I think Miller should retire. Vince and Garnett still has some game in them.

    THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!! I just got home and saw this and thought it was an April Fools Joke in July! Damn, what in the H.E.L.L is Daryl SMOKING??

    There were several PGs on the market who would have made better additions than this. It's no way I can logically call 713-627-DUNK and order season tickets now.....I'll have to question my own sanity!:mad:

    Morey should sign Scola too. It's not like the 13th to 15th man on a roster matters. Maybe get rid of McDaniels his fanboys are nearly as annoying as the LOFs.

    Man, I remember when we first signed him, and all the ***** talker's were crying about how old he is.

    Turns out, he made all of us STFU, with his skills and IQ.

    Just getting tired of young stupid baller's, that have no brains to comprehend a simple game.

    LOL, why are the Nets signing up a full tank roster when they don't own their pick in 2017?

    I think they're willing to cut him if we find the right trade/signing.

    They probably signed him because it allows them to seek better value on deals with less pressure of having a 3rd PG. We can roll with Bev/Gordon/Prigioni. Three very different types of players, none would have to play huge minutes. That insurance is worth the minimum guaranteed money. I'd rather they do this and work on finding a PG than to make a rushed deal for a mediocre PG.

    The PG market is so pathetic right now that who knows if even a Prigioni would be available just before camp.

    Im fine with Bev, EG10, and the Grand Father. They all can defend at average to above average level, and all can also knock down the three at a high clip!

    The guy is old and slow and no longer has the stamina to shoot a decent % with 3 pointers. Sounds like a perfect fit for the 7 second MD run and gun offense. Morey does not respect the pg position like a good gm should.
