Here's a question...

[Diesel]

Do we need a Vet big or a Young Big?

[Guest Riv]

Vet to teach Shelden, Zaza, Solomon...

[Diesel]

Who are the most available VET bigs?

[Diesel]

Mo Taylor and Danny Fortson both have ending contracts.

Vet big and his name is Magloire.

[Guest Riv]

There are so many names floating around its hard to say. Foster, Magliore...whoever can provide some veteran leadership and take our young bigs under their wings and teach them.

Dude, those guys are horrible. Danny will only teach them how to foul and Mo will only teach them a small sliver of inside post game. Only reason Fortson gets rebounds is because he is jacked and fouls people. Mo just brings nothing but a turnaround jump shot.

Lorenzen Wright maybe?

Now, there's a different perspective.

I don't think Magloire can be a leader. Part of the reason I don't like him is that he is a thug.

I don't think Foster can really be a leader either. He's been a 3rd tier player most of his career.

When I think of Vet bigs who can be leaders... The first person that comes to mind is Alonzo Mourning. Well, he's not available to us so is there anybody else who may have been an allstar or his team's leader years ago that may be available to us.

Toni Kukoc?

Shareef?

I don't know.

The trick is we need a vet big that can still play. Lead by doing it, instead of talking for a change...Kenny Anderson, Kevin Willis.
