    Anyone know what vets are still out on the market that still have something left in the tank? I think Corey Maggette is still out there, and Delonte West is in China. Probably would be bad elements to bring in though. Would be interesting to think about if they made a lopsided trade at the deadline and had some open spots.

    Would you take a chance on Stephen Jackson? Quite talented on the offensive end... Can get to the basket and hit the three-pointer consistently... Able to play the point... Very tough defensively... Very aggressive when he's into it... Pretty strong... Must improve decision-making... A hothead sometimes... Turnover prone... Has some baggage.

    we need a BIG, PF or C, preferably a PF/C but a backup C is the numero uno priority easily IMO

    There was a rumor that Antonio McDyess wanted to return to the NBA and was in great shape.

    Did you see him on the Clippers? He has a pot belly, the guy is not in basketball shape.

    I should have used the sarcasm font there! He's Jared Jeffries and Kurt Thomas with a jump shot. More so, he's a playoff vet who could mentor TRob, Freeland and Leonard.
