    Additional entertainment. Happy. Think we all want him to succeed. And think we all agree he will progress faster as an American canary.

    Here he is doing the exact opposite ... shopping for JELL-O at a Target in Houston



    wtf -- JELL-O ... and that shopping cart is waaayyyy too empty.

    The guy was taking steroids and he still got destroyed.

    Super teams always have a mix of ring chasers and rookies on the roster. Dekker and Harrell played real roles off the bench. Would love to replace them with cheap former all stars (although that feels kind of dirty) but may have to use the international kids.

    Well, I'm all for signing the guy if he made significant progress since last summer. I hope he did, but he would have needed some serious coaching from our side, and I don't remember anyone being sent over there to work with him. Maybe this summer? Because last year in international competition (was it the Olympics?) he got used like a c**-cloth. The potential was there, though.

    There is no way in hell he will ever play on the wing in that capacity.

    His Kyle Wiltjer foot speed and freakish length to protect the rim will almost certainly make him a skinny 5 in today's NBA.

    Another guy that D'Antoni played at the 5, Anthony Randolph, was just as skinny and WAY quicker. D'Antoni refused to play him at anything but C.

    Well if we do trade Ryan Anderson we will need some PF depth since we basically got rid of everybody in that position.

    I'd think sugar free jello is actually one of the healthier snacks on the planet, when compared to all other snacks. No nutrition, but no bad carbs either.

    We are stacked at PF now. Obviously you haven't been following the Uthoff thread.

    I cannot remember was Shawn Bradley as skinny? Always hated him the way he ACCIDENTLY used his elbows.

    Zhou is about to show the world he's on Jarrod Uthoff's level. He is the 2nd CoMing!

    Okay, so granted my arms are nowhere near as long as his and thus don't have as far to go, but I would not describe myself as particularly strong, I'm 40 years old and my row sets are heavier than that.
