    He is coming back to the NBA. Rockets looking at him at PF. Think he can bring some leadership and veteran stability.

    I'm down. He's a stretch 4 and he can't be any worse than Dorsey.

    If we are aiming for a veteran player who wants to try to come back to the NBA, I would rather Emeka Okafor.

    3rd star!

    But isn't he an astonishingly bad defender?

    In 10 games for the Magic in 2012–13, he averaged 5.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in 11.7 minutes per game. With the Wizards last year he did about the same, shooting under 40%.

    I hope we pick him up. Obviously we will cut Black.

    I'm all for the addition. Leadership, stability plus someone that can make a simple basket at the rim.

    We need another head band on this team. I actually really like Harrington as a fit on this team. I used to always draft him on my NBA2K teams. That's was 6 years ago though...

    He can barely rebound and shot the three below 35% last year, really Morey?

    I figured he was just waiting to join a contender. Ray Allen is doing the same thing, correct?

    35% career three point shooter. Can he play any defense?

    I hope i'm not asking too much but do you know who else wants him, if it's LAC or Spurs we probably won't get him.

    Now it's really up to Al. I heard the Rockets were interested in him and a few other teams as well.

    We are thin in the front court as it is. I would think that The cut will be made at the guard level.
