    Hes a bit of an awkward fit. We do need offense, especially off the bench, but another chucker guard who only compounds our lack of size in the backcourt? I'll hold out judgement because the guy is talented and could really be a spark if he plays the right way.

    Is Nate Robinson a duplicate of what Ishmael Smith brings to the W's? Like Run BJM said, we need size in our backcourt.

    This signing doesn't really fix our biggest problem which is that we can't rebound or score inside. I'm not sure if this helps us in our playoff hunt.

    Why??? Each passing day really makes me wonder about what Jackson is doing and whether its a step in the right direction. I thought we were trying to get bigger, stronger, and more defensive? Nate? Really? I mean, I respect that guy played in the NBA and was decent but he's the wrong guy for the wrong team trying to go in the right direction.

    Do you see the Trailblazers, Rockets or Jazz doing this sort of thing? Those guys are teams on the down trying to get better.

    There's a trade a-brewing. Ish is a flat out better basketball player than Nate. Other than Derek Fisher, (and obviously LeBron) he's my most hated player in the league. He brings nothing to the game other than theatrics from time to time. I hate this signing with a passion. I hope they know what they're doing...
