    I remember some people on here wanting him years ago.

    Neat signing I suppose.

    Could be interesting. He's had some time to mature physically and mentally. Might be a nice Viper addition with maybe a Hassan Whiteside storybook ending.

    He looks like a decent 3rd string center/forward.

    I prefer Joshua Smith, because it's funny to see fat people play basketball. But it's not important, because we're already locked, no room for more players.

    If he makes the team, does he take over the "best looking" award?

    D-Mo and Dwight are good looking, I guess. I think Tyler has it down.

    What's more impressive is he has range on his J by the looks of it:

    I have a lot of faith in our big man coaching so I can see this guy staying on for depth at PF/C and improving over time. He's got great energy, goes for loose balls, size and agility, does dirty work. Great camp signing IMO.

    I thought Dekker is the new Parsons?

    That isn't saying much though. We have some uggos on our team ... Ariza, Terry, Bev, Jones (he looks like Littlefoot), Thornton and Brewer all have faces only a mother could love. They are beautiful on the inside I am sure though.

    I would prefer to keep the 15th position, open for a veteran. I would like to see Tyler on the Vipers, if he plays well in camp.

    Price might be right as well.

    Isn't he the player that left high school early to go overseas and play international ball... I wish he would've stayed in the US and went to college.. He has the tools, I just don't believe he was able to develop them.

    Was 19 when he measured 6'10 in shoes and 7'5 wingspan. Wonder if he grew anymore?

    I like this signing as the possible 15th man on a non-guaranteed contract. He's definitely got an NBA body and athleticism. Terrible personal character though and that is one of the biggies that's kept him out of the league. But he's worth it on a non-guaranteed contract that can be traded away for nothing if need be.

    Damn, the guy looks too good to be true. Why is this guy not highly sought after?

    Absolutely no defense? A complete head case? What?
