May certainly would be worth the risk as a back-up PF after Utah matches Millsap. Minimum deal and let him try and stay healthy. If he can stay healthy, he will produce on the offensive end.
Weight issues are never a good thing.. the guy's got talent, but once you go fat, it's hard to go back and stay there.
swish it around a bit, then spit it in a shaker glass with chipped ice and extremely cheap vodka. Follow your reingestion sips with a deep sniff on a glue bottle. Head bang the wall and repeat. I could live with a healthy May signed to a minimum contract. He was never someone I particularly liked as a player, but he does have some talent. Given health, he could be fine for a deep bench guy.

May was very fat in college - there's no "back" to go. However, if he shows anything I'd be willing to give up vets min. and a spot for him. He was a very effective scorer in college even though he was fat.
I'm not sure if this video is pre-micro surgery or not, but regardless he abused D.Howard back in 2006. I know, I know it's 09. I wouldn't be shocked if we sign him if we lose out on Millsap. He's got some excellent post moves, and a pretty decent rebounder. Condition issues is a correctable thing, the knees aren't, so if don't sign him it's the knees must be shot.

He'd only be called upon 5 minutes per half on most nights, so conditioning wouldn't even be much of an issue.
It's a bit ironic to me that we're pinning a lot of our "let it bake" hopes on Oden's improvement, weight loss and strength gain in his 2nd year after microfracture, but we're pooh-poohing (and throwing up in mouths) over a pre-prime lottery pick's ability to be a 10th man on our team b/c he's a "fattie". In his 2nd season after MF.
I don't get it either Brian. May has a ton of talent, and has showed it on an NBA level by averaging 17/10 per 36 minutes played. He has been hurt, and out of shape, but for a back up he would be terrific. Assuming of course it is for little money. His injury concerns are legit I think.
No argument from me on that. If you said "he's had complications from MF", or "it's his 3rd knee surgery", or "he wants MLE", then no thank you. Signing him to a Channing Frye-level (2/3.5M, but with team option in 2nd year) contract wouldn't be a bad thing, IMO. Then again, I wanted to sign Shaun Livingston last year. As a matter of fact, I still do. But Presti seems to read my posts.
I told you guys before, be careful with highlight videos. You can make Ha look like Dwight Howard if you know what you are doing!
Gross! Does it taste good? I know right? Why would he want to hold that in his mouth? Anyhow, I wouldn't mind May on the team. If all else fails. But before Ben Wallace. I like May in college.
May looks good and all in the video, but who's that PG? Man, it sure would be nice if someone like that was available in free agency right about now.....er wait
