Why Jackie Butler isn't playing yet

No kidding. Bonner has probably got one of the worst bodies this side of Zarko Paspaji - and I don't believe he even smokes.

I hope EWill get into enough shape to be able to contribute on a regular basis. I've not seen him play in a few years, so I don't know what he brings to the table.

A 40 yr. old small forward in the NBA would be a freakin' miracle.

I'm trying to recall one. If you want to count MJ, he turned 40 his last year.

Not when he is sitting on the Inactive list.

Too bad we can't slather James White with some of Butler's lost fat. Maybe then he could dunk in traffic. And slather some of Oberto's excess basketball brains over him, too.

And, I'm all for stapling Eric Williams to the IR. If we ever need him, we're screwed. I'd rather give White any time he'd ever get.

Yeah, I'm all for Williams on the IR as well. Maybe alternating the other 2 slots with Vaughn, Butler, Bonner, and White. I would like White OR Butler to be available for every game. Try to give them some garbage minutes. Guess we need to start blowing people out though.
