    pj obviously brings veteran experience, but IMO, thats about it. he didnt do great last year and i dont see him improving. good trade value maybe though?

    If they sign him, it is not to trade him. He has no trade value. I wouldn't even give a second round pick for him. He can still play and get rebounds. However, his movement is trouble because of his age, but he is in great shape and can keep up with Garnett and Bosh.

    i know you cant base everything off of stats, but he averaged 8 points and 4.7 boards last season. i dont know a lot about pj, but merely based on those few numbers, i dont think he can hang with kg and bosh. please correct me if im wrong.

    Well, he can try, I mean. Still, a good player off the bench, but now that I think of it, him and Zo. Add Dumbo and you have the oldest front court ever assembled. I'm mixed, now.

    We should just open up our own ALF for our team.

    Maybe if Miami ends up trading Haslem for Artest, PJ would fill in the spot as either starting or backup PF.
