    He looks like a poor man's Kirk Snyder. It is my understanding he is a defensive specialist, so I wouldn't right him off just yet. But let me see some lock down D rather quickly or I say let's release and look for a big.

    My biggest worry is the ability for smalls to get into the lane when Deke sits. It happened against the Wizards and it happened even more against the Grizzlies. I was thinking we could use a shot blocking big (Ratliff) last night.

    For those who said that they want to see Green play, is it jsut because of the dunks? C'mon guys, we don't need those ''cool'' dunks, winning a game is more important. Btw Green is sure not better in D than Jones

    What makes you think Bobby Jones will help us win games? Its garbage time, who would you rather see? Defensive guy or G-Green? Easy choice. IMO, we need to give that open spot to a big man. But if we're just going to throw minutes at a guy, I want to see those go to Green's development.

    lol, was it that shot? Yeah we probably don't need him though. It was just a ten day contract right?

    Felt sorry for him after seeing him brick that shot, could definitely tell he had nerves knowing this was his last game on the 10-Day. It's up to how well he is in practice so far to see if he stays, and Rick knows that he can't judge him on 2 minutes(Unlike most simpletons here).
