If Kurt Thomas can't be brought back, I'd give him a look. he seems decent.

http://www.eastvalleytribune.com/story/119578Even with Lopez on board, there is a good chance that the Suns will keep one of their backup centers from last season — Sean Marks or Brian Skinner. The advantage would figure to side with Marks, a favorite of Kerr’s, a more economical choice and a player with more offensive game to balance the defense-first mentality of Lopez behind O’Neal.

Oh yea,@ Marks over Skinner.
Always a good producer no matter how sporadic his minutes. I agree he's worth a look if Thomas isn't coming back.
not in a million years...
Make that a million and one. Skinner is awful.
Ask Sun fan if they'd rather have had Thomas or Skinner last year. I'd rather play Ian 35 minutes.
I liked him but I don't if he is still as good as some years ago.
If a mentally healthy GM choose Marks over you, you should badly suck.
The report says that Kerr chooses Marks over Skinner since Marks is offensive-minded and he wants to even it out with Lopez being defensive-minded.
Were not that desperate are we? He's a garbage man. He can stay with the run and done Suns.
Clippers Sign Brian Skinner
Jul 31, 2008 5:03 PM EST
The Los Angeles Clippers signed veteran forward Brian Skinner, Vice President of Basketball Operations announced today. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not announced. Originally drafted by the Clippers in the first round (22nd overall pick) of the 1998 NBA Draft, Skinner is a 10-year NBA veteran who returns to Los Angeles after playing 66 games last season with the Phoenix Suns. Skinner averaged 3.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 0.2 assists for Phoenix in 2007-08. “Brian Skinner is a veteran NBA player who will give us both size and depth in the middle,” Baylor said. “We are familiar with Brian, and know that he will be a good fit in his return to the Clippers.”

He would've been a good fit in SA.
Eh, hes alright.
Nothing to throw a computer against the wall for.
BTW,
Thomas came back, meaning the need for Skinner wasn't there.
Again, step off the ledge.
When I was out of highschool working for Finish Line his family would go in there and buy tons of shoes and stuff from me. He is from the small town that I am from. Temple, TX.
No ledgestepping for me, I just thought Skinner would've been awesome here.
and play instead of who?
Once the Spurs signed Tolliver, there wasn't much need for another big man. If they unload Bonner or Oberto, then we can talk about signing another one.
The subject of a great Seanism this past season: "If I looked in the mirror and saw that coming off my chin, I'd start shaving really fast."
Not logging in large minutes, just as the 10th/11th man or for insurance. Looking at the FA market, I don't see anyone that you could've liked more as the 4th/5th big than Skinner.
So pay a couple million dollars for a guy that would take a roster spot from Gist or Tolliver?
That makes sense....
Or the minimum, or just 1 million. Not necessarily two.
Why not make it in the hundreds while we are at it?
skinner would have been like horry
see very limited minutes
Spurs still have 7 bigs with Duncan, Thomas, Oberto, Bonner, Mahinmi, Gist and Tolliver. (baring they sign Gist)
I don't see how they can add another one, even more if they want to develop their young players.
