    It looks to me like Asik is having more success already.

    Clearly not good enough for Omer, now that he makes $25M.

    Or she found out he is moving to Houston, and dislikes Murray's blacklist status with agents, or found out that Dwight hates us and didn't want to catch anything. :rolleyes:

    Hrmmmm

    Asik is a far better rebounder and defender. His offensive contribution will be what he makes it to be (ie, putbacks and assisted layups/dunks). But defensively, Asik is supreme!

    Bulls have until 11pm tonight to match. Apparently they're not very likely to match as they've committed to signing Nazr Mohammed.

    The Knicks are screwed. Amare is an injury waiting to happen, Melo is a chucker, and the Knicks are probably the oldest team in the league. If they make the playoffs I'm guessing they're out in the first round.

    I really don't want to see Douglas starting the season with us. I'd like to have a good shooting & defending PG to bring in when Royce White is running the show. A guy like Gibson (Cavs ) would be great. Is he still good?

    Gortat averaged 10 rebounds a game last season in 32 minutes per game. If Asik is a far better rebounder, can we expect to see 12 rebounds given starters minutes? 14? :rolleyes:

    Gortat is a very solid 2 way player. While Asik is known for his defense only. Thus one-dimensional.

    I would like to see Jones start if they are not going to play him at the three.

    I'm ok with that. Defense over offense at the center position all day.

    See Brad Miller for proof.

    Patterson will most definitely start. Believe it or not, he is one of the two rotational veterans of this squad.
