Zachary! Zacharias! Zach!

You beat the rule man! Any name with an X or a Z in it is cool! You could SOOOO make it in the NBA.

(Man, today started off real sh!tty, but I'm havin a good time now...! )

Billy Knight is a JackA$$, He could have did better than this no name. Like I said in another post Tony Battie or Andrew Declerq would have been good additions. I was hoping for a 30win season now it is more like 23 or 25wins.

Honestly, I swear I thought John Edwards was black. I didn't expect him to look like that...

Me too because the guy who came to my mind was Blue Edwards. Remember that guy?

Or maybe john edward? "The spirits asked me to ackowledge the missing "s"."

john "douchebag" edward

[Wretch]

But the guy that immediately came to my mind was James Edwards...from the Pistons.

[Lascar78]

On a side note, when I first heard Blue Edwards' name, I thought he was blue. I was rather disappointed when it turned out he was black. False advertising if you ask me

[Traceman]

He passed on Steven Hunter and went after Zaza this year. He passed on other "long/athletic" big men last year and signed Collier and Drobnjak. Somebody had better remind BK quick that he likes athletic, shotblocking/defending big men because his signings sure as heck don't reflect that philosophy!

ROTFLOL...

I know. I understand what you're saying (and that's pretty damn funny) but I dunno...it just doesn't hit me that way. I guess because I have learned to see past color altogether.

LOL> I did too the first time I heard his name.

[Lascar78]

maybe he's just a forgetful guy

wow

who woulda thunk that tony battie was a player that would add 5-7 wins to a team...

or that there were ANY big men left out there (sans chandler/curry) that could add 5-7 wins/year

if there are, they'd be worth 3mil/year easy

[hotboyj]

We shouldn't worry about anything.

He was a damn rookie last year who played less than 6 mpg.

He is a legit 7-footer, and weighs well over 260 lbs.

Can we be positive for once.

All year everyone is talking about not to judge Marvin cuz he hasn't played yet.

Well Edwards hasn't either, so lay off.

Exactly right.....hell who know maybe we can get lucky for once...anything is possible.

It's like dude's name... Edwards. Put two of those together

Ed Edwards? Eddie Edwards? Come on now!

Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards was an Olympian.

He was that goofy ski jumper from England who could barely make it down the hill. Came in dead last. He cleaned up on endorsements though.

[f_town]

i guess the other option is we never take a chance on anyone

lets sign Olowakandi for the remainder of our salary cap ASSAP!

(misspelling intended )

fact is, we will need a bruiser on this team

maybe this is the evil white guy we need

[beav]

that Donnie Walsh gave BK some kind of heads up on Edwards...

"You know Billy he's not good enough for the best team in the East...but if you need a backup"

Seriously though I'm sure that Walsh made a call and told him that this guy can play back up minutes here, and let's face it the guy knows his stuff...
