May as well hand them the Stanley Cup now, because this season is over.
What, another team trying to grab our scrubs in an attempt to contain Timmy?

The New Orleans Hornets announced today that they have signed free agent forward/center Sean Marks. Per team policy, terms of the contract were not released.
“We are excited for Sean to join our team,” said Hornets General Manager Jeff Bower. “He is a veteran leader, who has been on winning teams and will be a great addition to our frontcourt.”
Marks (6-10, 250) is a nine-year NBA veteran with career averages of 3.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in 9.1 minutes per game. He has played with four different teams—Toronto, Miami, San Antonio and Phoenix. When he made his debut as a rookie on March 16, 1999 with the Raptors, he became the first native of New Zealand to play in the NBA.
Most recently with the Suns, Marks played in 19 games during the 2007-08 season, shooting 53.5% (23-of-43) from the field and averaging 3.1 points per contest. He scored in 13 of 19 appearances, including a season-high 16 points and career-high 13 rebounds in the Suns’ season finale Apr. 16 against Portland.
A native of Auckland, New Zealand, Marks played at California, appearing in 86 career games. As a senior, he averaged 9.8 points and 7.6 rebounds in 26 contests.

Oops. Forgot the blue.
They are building a male cheerleaders team?
I think Turiaf would be interested too
I thought he was Australian
The balance of power has shifted.
Seems like two teams now have signed him primarily to gain insight into the Spurs' playbook.
Gotta hand it to the guy-- he had an average college career, and has averaged 3 ppg as a pro, but because he has a good at ude and a a good rep he continues to get paid by nba teams and has managed to stay in the league.
While I am not a fan of the Hornets, I prefer them to the Suns.
So it is a step in the right direction.
Congrats, Kiwi.
You are less dead to me.
Amazing how someone with so little talent has been able to stay in the league for so long. Yeah, super nice guy and all that, but geez.
Yes, it's incredible. He never plays and always end with good teams
who is his agent? i think he gets hired as a Spurs system intelligence player... to reveal TD's moves and Pop's tendencies...
the hornets just made a move that will boost them to the #1 seed
Why the would you want that stiff.
with Peja, Ryan Bowen, and Sean Marks the Hornets have reached their 3 white player limit
Probably the same reasons the Spurs wanted him.
No dout he knows PHX sucks.
how can the NBA allow both Marks and Ryan Bowen to be on the same team?
I don't understand how this guy keeps getting a contract each year...
I think they actually engineered this move. This way Marks and Bowen compete with each other for minutes. If Marks had ended up with another club then they'd have to face the possibility that both could end up on the floor at the same time, resulting in a combined lack of athleticism and pigmentation not seen since the days of Jack Haley.
He must have a fantastic personality, like a male Mary Poppins.
NBA is a fairy tale world were being a nice guy is rewarded by tons of money.
Sean Marks is the man...!hehehe
no in big deal.. i heard new zealand got beautiful landscape...
