Signing Marc Jackson to a one year deal would not s*ck. Collier and Cato have yet to show they make an entire year without injury.
Wes was 6'7" and fierce. Saying he was undersized would be like saying Barkley was too short to be a 4 and making him play 2! L.B. is right, if the guy's 6'8" or 6'9" I'd still take him as center if he has ability and -- more important -- heart. Hakeem had incredible ability, but what made him MVP was his heart. So, what does that say about Jackson (or White)? He!l, I don't know, I've never seen them play! But don't discount either one on account of size. Foul trouble, lack of desire, history of injury, these are what would make me think twice. Having a player like that already in Cato makes me want to take a long hard look before I sign someone.
I hate to break it to you. N.W., but Jackson has never made it through a season without injury, either......
AMEN!! I've been thinking and saying this for years!! Classic example: KG. I think the guy's awesome, but MINN would be so much better if and when he decides to be an interior force. Too many of these guys want to handle the ball and shoot J's, as if they were over-sized guards. KG's no exception, though I must admit that last year he seemed to work from the box more than ever.
