    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Charles Oakley hasn't played in the NBA for three years, is 43 years old and writing a "tell-all" book about the NBA. Still, the car-wash entrepreneur says he is serious about making a return to the league and he specifically cites the Nets as a team that could use his toughness, leadership and defense. Oakley, who famously pushed Vince Carter when the two were Raptors, says he has gotten interest, but declines say from who or for what role.</div>

    He could be a great leader in the locker room, but I doubt he will be able to do much on the court especially with his age and now possibly rust.

    Oakley should come back. He will guard Garnett, and take him to school.

    Oakley? 43 years old? I don't think so. No 43 year old can perform at an acceptable level in the NBA.

    Mutumbo, he is like 100, and he still comes out and performs. C'mon, have some faith. A guy like Oakley can make Sean and Kristic into some dirty rebounder's down low. Isn't that what you want?

    Did you forget Kevin Willis?? He's like 45 and was with the Mavs last time I checked.
