    Talent wise, after repeated injuries, right now he is no longer the guy who used to be in Orlando Magic. He has already passed his prime time, unfortunately;

    EQ / personality wise, great probably he would become the cancer of this team.

    Salary wise, he will be too expensive, esp. if you consider the above two points.

    Now if you want to bite me please go ahead.

    Yes it's another Dwight thread. But it's a totally different voice, so please, it deserves own thread. :p

    Clearly Daryl Morey agrees with me and not you. I'll take that.

    If he's having back surgery this Summer, maybe we should wait and give him a real work out before trying to sign him. Nothing worse than having 88 on the books for 4 years, would destroy the team.

    Seriously there are like 3 other threads in which this debate has been exhausted, but hey why not go through it all again since there's nothing else to talk about right?

    If you're a GM and you have D12 to offer in trade locked in at 4 years on max money and any other Center locked up at his market rate for 4 years as well, which do you think would net you more assets in return?

    I think it's not even a question that most GM's in the NBA would give up a whole lot more for D12 locked up on a max contract than any other center in the league. That should be the end of the conversation right there.

    You know the sad thing about all that really is? While I'd say without question even a sub 100% D12 is still the best center in the league, he's no where in the same league as many of the centers from the past 3 decades......that just goes to show the state of the 5 spot in todays NBA.
