Literally the ONLY value that Thabeet would have on a roster would be as a designated defender of the in-bounds passer in end-of-game situations. The 'Showtime' Lakers of the 1980's did that with a roster spot for Chuck Nevitt.
uhhhhhhh, okaaaaaay
Last saturday, I was looking for a christmas gift for my son.
That firemen truck was up there at the top shelves... Impossible to grab...
Thabeet could have helped... well, not really... I found a stepladder.
Just a taller Mahinmi. His use is 6 fouls
Say what you want, but in a moment where we're desperate for athletic bigs who can block shots, run and possibly rebound, the likes of a K. Brown and, to a lesser extension, a Thabeet (who, that's for sure, is a good runner and shot blocker) looks like decent acquisitions...
We're not going to take players a lot better than them, in any case.
And, talking about phisical specimens, we're talking about an (also in some years ago) ex absolute 1sth choice and an (not so many years ago) ex absolute 2nd draft choice.
At this point, if they're available, I would't mind take them both, one for immediate contribution (K. Brown) via free agency (3 millions for some years ?), the other via trade using the Dice (already retired?) contract...for the mere chance of a decent, furture, development...and actually for specific defensive situations.
Wheres sam bowie on that list
the question is how old is he now, and can he improve under the spurs coachin?
is it worth a gamble? i dunno...
is he any different to kwame brown?
Yes. He's way worse.
I'd rather have Frankie Elson back than this piece. Srsly.
