    IMO, there are more good point guards in this league than good centers. No debate though: we need a center, and that's not a given.

    Loved Dame's answer, "I'll be here. I'm not gonna pay for a house and not be in it." LOL

    I would have kept him around for a while. His contract was a get out of jail free card for any team that wanted to trade for him (and then cut him - owing nothing) at the draft.

    Edit: Nevermind. I guess the deadline to decide on him was moved up so wise decision to cut him.

    Watching LA's interview, and then Dame's, its not hard to see whose team this is. The kid is just so motivated to improve. Love all of his answers.

    The body language of a leader vs. a daydreamer who plays only for the money.
