He's finally over the foot fracture, and will get a chance to play in the Dleague. Good news as it was thought he wouldn't be able to play with them this year. Now he gets a chance to get some viable playing time.
Yea hes the 7'5 Russian. Finnaly over his foot injury, took awhile. Now he can get some experience. He's one of those guys that has protential written all over his forhead. PPod has been very succesfull in the weight program, this guy is stacked. Call him stiff all you want, but it would be scary for him to back you down. Im excited to see what he can do in the D-League. Possibly not a resign for Mbenga this offseason, PPod might move up to 3rd string C in the up comming seasons

He owned Nachbar on a back down, to bad he got fouled and got sent to the line on having 1 point in his NBA carrear so far

Of all things he got, that none of our centers currently have, is an offense game. Also, at 7'5 he ain't no skinny <Censored> like some of these tall centers are. He's got weight to go with the height. He can be something once he gets the game down.
Yeah he's the unskilled version of Ilgauskas. Dallas needs a defensive Center more than a scoring center. Pavel would be a liability on defense since he would too slow. Maybe he could guard Shaq but he is not needed since Dampier does that.
