    Its gonna have to be from one of the amnesty cuts. Haywood and Beidrins look most attractive. Might have to take a chance on the likes of Fesenko or Gray.

    A combination of Haywood or Biedrins with Fesenko or Gray wouldnt be bad at all, if they could be had for around 6 mil per season.

    Are you kidding? If I am wrong EVERYONE will remember it and toss it back at me all the time.

    I believe the guy can play, and his confidence was the main issue he was not playing.

    This is year 3, a contract year for him......yeah, I think he shows a lot of improvement.

    Offer Marc Gasol a huge contract and see if Memphis matches.

    Thabeet is already a bust. What was the quote? That his development last year was "terrible"?

    He's basically good only as an expiring contract come the trade deadline, or as salary coming off the books in time for the 2012 FA pool. And maybe six fouls.

    yea i think hes going to breakout this year as well. I think people forget he has not been playing basketball that long. He started when he was 15 and did not get serious about it till he 2005/2006 when he GOT to UCONN.

    Give him some time. He will put up decent numbers atleast.

    Nope, CD said he was a hard worker, listened to what he was saying but that his FOOTWORK was terrible.

    I hope CD gets to Thabeet ASAP !

    What Thabeet really needs is an older brother (or father figure) type to constantly encourage and push him to develop. Remember when Lakers hired Kareem for Bynum?

    Mutombo comes to mind.
