    I would rather add couple of low cost prospective young centers instead of signing Samuel. Samuel isn't a bad player, but we need sign players that will eventually add "value" to the franchise in order trade for an all star player as a mediocre team.

    What's the point of signing veterans? We have to "rebuild" now.

    He would make up for the loss of Chuck.

    As much as I want Thabeet, I dont think Les or Morey like him. He will sign with Miami.

    Corrected. I am sure Dalmebert signs with anyone but us. We end up with Greg Smith and Samahan.

    No point in signing him. Play the young guys.

    We don't have a choice. I think for Thabeet to become a good NBA player, nothing would be better for him than playing starters minutes. I will even predict that if he were to start for us, at some point in the season he will be leading the league in blocked shots. One more thing, look at the lineup closely..
    Lowry
    Martin
    T-Will(hopefully)
    Scola
    Thabeet
    Three of them are from our starters from the past two seasons or so. These are going to be the coaches on the floor with him. Helping him get through the first 8 games or so. Once he gets confident and settled in the rotation, he will begin to exceed our expectations(which for most of you is not much).

    Let's see what the contract looks like. He's a lot better than his perception on clutchfans.
