Trade for this big body downlow BK

[a1aa0]

2007 2nd rounder to Raptors for Pape Sow? Gives us a rebounder/big body (6-10 250) we desperately need. Leading NBDL in rebounds (both offensive/defensive).

But I guess it wouldn't matter... Woody would want four 6-9 guys out there standing around the perimeter with Zaza fending for himself on the boards... Therefore we'd continue to get outrebounded game after game...

37-29 Utah outrebound us

39-33 Denver

43-45 Phoenix

37-35 Toronto

41-37 Miami

46-38 Houston

38-42 Portland

45-56 Indiana (imagine that, we outrebounded and won)

25-38 Boston (ditto)

43-41 New Orleans

Too many times with the lack of offense playsets, we have 4 guys sitting on the perimeter with one of them going one one one, only to settle for a fadeaway jumpshot.

Tired of it... Have at least two guys in there thats gonna crash the boards... Right now, only Zaza is making that effort... In addition to Zaza, put Batman in there... He seems to have a nose for the ball...

With the addition of another big body, we'd be able to have more depth to allow two big guys to be in there at the same time... Marvin has shown some willingness to get in there and rebound as well a lot moreso than JChill...

Interesting sidenote stat:

Ivey : 96 minutes played : 4 steals

Lue : 359 minutes played : 3 steals

Ivey/JJ/Harrington/Batman/Zaza

with stretches of

JJ/Salim as well

Do you really think Toronto will trade a big man when they are more desarate for one than the Hawks are?

[a1aa0]

Well, another "W" with some strong rebounding... That's the key for this team...

But exodus, I thought a Babcock was running the Raptors organization... So anything is possible..

Grundy and Riley were in training camp with the Hawks, and they are playing well in the NBDL right now. Riley is around 5th in the league in rebounding with 8.5 rpg, and Anthony Grundy is averaging 23 points nad 5 assists per game.

How is Donta doing down there?

[KB21]

I can't find much on him. He scored 7 points and had 3 assists and 2 rebounds in Arkansas's last game.

Donta has played in three games up until now:

1st) 11 min, 2 pts (0-0 fg, 2-2 ft), 4 reb, 2 to

2nd) 17 min, 2 pts (1-5 fg), 1 ast, 2 reb, 4 stl, 3 to

3rd) 22 min, 7 pts (3-7 fg, 0-1 3fg, 1-1 ft), 3 ast, 2 reb, 1 blk, 3 to
