I hope fans aren't actually expecting this at all. If white is as serious about making as he says, there's no way he'll try anything too crazy. If he were to do it and miss, he can pretty much start looking for another job after the game.
my god.. reminds me of those awful and trying long years.. especially the off-season.. where we were so desperate for decent play at the PF spot.. that it was almost a year-round tradition.. to have at least one "how about Malick Badiane?" thread pop up almost every other month.. and to think.. that there are people now.. that actually and willingly.. consider and dare.. propose trades.. involving Scola and/or Landry..

Sure, he might be one-dimensional, but, my, what a dimension. Same with our fascination with Bullard, a fan favorite back when he played. In the NBA for only one reason (world-class shooter), a 6'10" dude who can't rebound, block shots, or run? 3 pointers? Wacky.
gotcha, and agreed. well maybe they dont see him as long term yet while cook's contract is guaranteed next year.
does white even dunk ON guys or just during fast breaks and in constests? I dont even think i've seen any clip of him giving someone a facial. Like tmac on Bradley kind of facial..
he got traded to memphis it was part of the NO/Hou/Memphis bobby jackson trade last year. (why is it that it seems we are always trading with memphis? battier, bobby jackson, darrell arthur/dorsey, francis, lowry and i am sure there are more i am just forgetting)

forgot to say, they have more Anaheim Arsenal videos with James White wrecking shop. His jumper has improved from what it looks like. That turn around jumper at :49 seconds was very T-Mac like.
Humm...that's not enough of a facial, you meant the last dunk white did , right? Still a fast break.....that video makes me more interested in hunter or Bozeman
anything new about his status? It'll suck to see the guy go when he didn't even get time on the floor.
I dunno about ya'll, but I prefer a player that is capable of getting through double teams and finishing rather than someone just posterizing someone. That dunk at the end when he slipped the double team and jammed it home was great basketball.
well that's what I was trying to imply, that we need someone to contribute more than just providing flash, since everyone kept talking about anticipating in game free throws dunks and other feats, i ifugred i'd ask if he at leasts dunks on people, like in the halfcourt. Yeah i prefer what you suggested, but if he can finish strong on someone in the half court, that's more beneficial to us than him just being flashy on break aways. It could possibly give u some and 1s and some toughness above the rim that Yao and scola lack. I like how ron has done it, but he's got Yao's hops
