If Hasheem Thabeet were cut?

[SilverSpur]

ESPN reports if Gasol is traded to Houston, they would use amnesty on Thabeet.
I for one would sign him and let him learn from Duncan.
Your thoughts?

[slick'81]

not sure dudes been an utter failure on the nba level

[Steve-O-Matic]

I'd rather sign a New York City cabbie named Hasheem than this guy. Thabeet has absolutely nothing, and doesn't even belong in the league.

[tim210g]

Fuk it why not he can stay on the bench with splitter nd then we could put bonnet at the 5 LMAO!!!

[baseline bum]

You have to really suck to get amnestied on a rookie deal.

[ChumpDumper]

They added the third year of D-League send-downs to the CBA for Thabeet.

I really wish they would expand the draft and make the system more robust. Its a good start but the NBA product needs better apprenticing.

[Seventyniner]

Thabeet? Really? So Blair would have someone to build his confidence on in practice?

Actually, that last part could be worth the minimum.

[8FOR!3]

Honestly, no. The guy was a number two pick and teams aren't seeing enough potential in him to even keep him.

[ChuckD]

I'm not totally convinced that the Toros would even sign him.

[jesterbobman]

For the minimum? Maybe, as a 6th big in a short season to cover 10 minutes in cases of rest or injuries. Though I'd rather have our 2009 Big East product than him, and it's not close.

[TXstbobcat]

Wow, our big free agent move would be acquiring Hasheem Thabeet. It doesn't get any better than that.

[SenorSpur]

Is there any worse description than "epic failure"?

[DMX7]

Hasheem Thabeet was the #2 pick in the draft. Amazing what the difference between #1 and #2 was that year.

[buttsR4rebounding]

Wow, our big free agent move would be acquiring Hasheem Thabeet. It doesn't get any better than that.

Actually, it is worse than that. We are not eligible to bid on amnestied players. Every team under the cap would have to pass on him at the league minimum before we would even have a chance at him.

[BadOne]

Can't say I've seen anything from Thabeet that's impressed me. Aside from surviving DeJuan Blair mauling him in college, that is.

[Mr Bones]

I am going to go out on a limb and say that Thabeet will someday be better than Ian "the Savior" Mahinmi.

[TE]

I really don't know.

#2 drafts in general tend to fall into mediocrity which is weird

I would never sign a guy just because he plays at center. It's pointless. Houston kept signing a crippled center, but they waive this guy? No thanks.

If Thabeet were to be cut, he'd still be a ty player.....

[Obstructed_View]

If Thabeet weren't to be cut, it would be news.

[sananspursfan21]
