How about Nazi Mohamed? Isnt he a free agent? I think he would be a pretty good back up for Yao. But I cant remember his contract numbers. and I would love Pittsnoggle at number 32. He is long and has range.
Nazr at the league minimum, after we get our SG and PF and backup perimeter players straightened out. In other words, A BACKUP CENTER is a very low priority on our list of needs. We've already got the second best backup Center in the league who is still one of the top 20 centers in the whole league. It's just not a big need. Pittsnoggle is in danger of not being drafted while Novak is looking hot. We need to hope that Novak is still there at 32 or that we can move up a little bit and nab him.
Assuming we pick PJ Brown for say Stro +Sura+ first Round KIck ( Actually PJ+JR Smith for Stro+ Sura + first Round Pick) Sura retires and NOK gets leagues OK to get another player. We trade PJ towards trade deadline if he is "old Slow " etc etc ( wonder how Jho compares to PJ!) Again this may not be possible- but we may have a way out with PJ IF he can be traded to give Cap relief to someone else.
Yea. I've actually seen him there at least 3-4 times at Lifetime by Willowbrook. Funny thing is that half the people there don't know who PJ Brown is but me. Maybe I can try to recruit him next time.
Per Antiasri: " Assuming we pick PJ Brown for say Stro +Sura+ first Round KIck ( Actually PJ+JR Smith for Stro+ Sura + first Round Pick) Sura retires and NOK gets leagues OK to get another player.

This would have sounded good three years ago. Like coach JVG says, we need a big who can shoot from the outside so to create space for Yao Ming and PJ is not that player. Thinking about it more, Chuck Hayes can be this teams P.J. Brown for a few spotty minutes here and there. So don't disrespect Hayes with all this talk about needing PJ Brown. Yall don't want to piss off Hayes, it won't be pretty.
