    Time for what is starting to run out? Season doesn't start for another 2 months.

    A Daniel Santiago-level player is available any time you want to pick one up. No rush to sign him and Morey knows it.

    Sina either make up their own story or direct translate from other source. That's how they are reliable when translate from a reliable source.

    Morey will never over pay for talent. He has shown it many time with previous deals, so it will be less likely for Landry to get a deal that his agent is hoping for.

    I was just going through this thread and not impressed by him either until I saw this video. For a guy that is 7'1" and 256 lbs, I don't know many that move with the agility that he showed in that video; even if against lessor talent. I would love to see a video of him playing defense also.

    I am sick of the Landry issue. We need to make him a final offer and if he doesn't accept, move on. He is not the key to us winning a championship, at best he is a small piece. He had only a good "stretch" of games last year that were impressive. We have seen that before in the likes of Kelvin Cato and others. He has to prove first that he is not like that nor will his knee injury be a long term problem. To me he has no leg to stand on, pun intended, to be demanding a huge long deal; whether through his agent or not. His agent works for HIM, not the other way around.

    I would be satisfied to lose him if he doesn't accept our final offer, sign Santiago and Deke as our two back up centers behind Yao, and then have Scola, Hayes and Dorsey as our three main power forwards. It would mean that at some point that Artest would play some power forward for offensive purposes, but it's not like Landry proved that he is an offensive juggernaut at the PF position, and Hayes and Dorsey can argueably be considered better defensively than he was at that position.
