    We're talking David Freaking Andersen right here. He is our savior. 2009-2010 Rookie of the Year.

    18 PPG 10 PPG 5 APG

    Cant wait to see Cavs vs Rox Finals

    Shaq vs Andersen
    Lebron vs. Ariza

    I'm really interested to see what kind of contract he gets, that will really show us what we expect from him.

    Has anyone heard what kind of deal it may be?

    Ok Rox have there big man but its not a project or a young guy that MAY develop...we have a legitimate 7 footer who can score and spread the D. I think this is a clear sign that we are NOT rebuilding but reloading...I think with one more smart Morey type move we can still be a playoff team and set the stage for a championship run in 2010-11 when Yao returns! The questions is who goes next:

    TMAC
    or
    Shane

    David Alderige mentions Houston as a possibility for Boozer:



    "If Houston wants to hedge its bets against Yao Ming's future, and give Luis Scola some help inside, if only for a year, it has the document -- Tracy McGrady's expiring $22 million contract -- to get to chatting. It's unlikely Utah would part with Boozer and Matt Harpring, long a Sloan favorite, for basketball reasons. But that would be a relatively painless way for the Miller family to get out of tax hell relatively quickly

    So true. And while I would never accused DaDakota of being racist (that would be absurd), have you noticed that like 90% of the players he develops man crushes on are white?

    Dan Langhi, Boki Nachbar, Vassillis Spanoulis, Steve Novak and now he's excited about Chase Budinger and David Andersen. What's the deal there DaDakota? :D

    edit: In fairness, he also has a man crush on Von Wafer.

    Who is better, Anderson or Gotart? If Anderson is not as goood as Gotart, nothing worth celebrating.

    He loves David Andersen, but doesn't care for Jermaine Taylor. It must be a white thing.

    It's kinda hard to compare the two although they are about the same height both have different playing styles... as from what I've seen Anderson has got range and is pretty versatile. I don't know much about Gortat but heard he is a decent shot blocker and has some post moves.
