    That's a tad dramatic. It's as if people have forgotten we have the best SG and arguably the best C in the game...

    Naw he's been out of the league for a few years now. Guys have gone overseas and improved before. I'd rather have him than somebody I just saw be a bad NBA player last year.

    Fair enough, but did you watch his highlights from last season? He looked like Daryl Dawkins next to those short, scrawny dudes. In the NBA, he'll look more like James Harden... but playing the 5.

    Dorsey has improved...much better finisher at the rim...and still a solid P/R defender...

    Man can we at least get some height? I would be happy with Jermaine O'Neal, Jason Smith or Okafor. I can't imagine what Morey will do for the PG position.

    I actually think it is a good signing. Morey has always had a crush on JD and now hopefully he is a little more polished and mature.

    Of course.. hilarity naturally ensues.

    I'd definitely like to take a chance on Okafor, but I wonder how bad that injury he had is. I would have assumed that by now he would have generated a lot more interest.

    I like Camby, but I don't expect him to be healthy for a full season.

    Outside of Daniels, Morey has signed players that can all play some Defense. Going to be interesting to see who he gets as the defensive coach which is a huge key for this upcoming season.

    I think he is a veteran for the purpose of teaching young Cs such as Capela or whomever we sign next.

    I do not think we are done, another PF/C hybrid pls.

    How is it acceptable to Les for Morey to be signing all these unproven and ****ty players and not building around what we have in Harden & Howard. Best move was clearly Ariza to offset the loss of Parsons. Daniels was great against Portland but has hardly no NBA experience... I hope he continues to blossom into a nice back up 2. We still have an obvious need for PG depth and C. Dorsey is not the answer to backing up Dwight. He's short, looks fat in the highlights and was a complete bust when we drafted him. Please stop the madness and bring in some talented veterans to Fill out the roster.. This is not the time to take chances and look for the diamond in the rough. We have harden and Howard fuc king build around that and stop trying to form a super team. We don't need it to win.

    Over the course of his last 3 years abroad, he has been a sub-45% FT shooter.

    Morey is making a point that he can still resign ex-rockets. I get it

    I would say the perfect description for Dorsey would be a homeless man's Reggie Evans.
