    While a center in college, I think the team would be served best with Foote forward.

    Exactly. The pun is strong in this one.

    When all is said and done, I don't expect the coach to utilize this player.

    He's probably going to stick his Foote where the sun don't shine, at the end of the bench.

    It said Hornets, not Jets.

    Anyway, splish?

    Not really a splish or a splash -- I think the Hornets are just dipping a toe in the free-agent waters here.

    I'm hoping it's a sign they are getting ready to unload Kaman, and hopefully to the Rockets!
    But now that Milwaukee is ready to trade Bogut, Who would you rather have? Bogut as starting Center and Dally as backup, or Dally/Kaman?

    Really hard choice actually

    While Bogut is better than Dally and Kaman and a lot younger, I don't want another Yao situation in Houston.

    Geez Morey needs to do something fast. He's been nothing but a hang nail on the organization.

    You take Bogut before Kaveman everyday. But no way he's on the trade block.

    Look guys, you Kaman here, and you can't see your Foote past your Bogut.

    Okay, I quit.

    Wow. Good for Jeff! He was my TA at Cornell and was a super nice guy. That being said, I never thought he had the foot speed to make it to the NBA. I'm glad he proved me wrong.

    NOH have been cursed with injuries this season. Okafor and Landry have been out for while now. Jason Smith went down too. That's basically their frontcourt on the IR list.
