    I wonder how many minutes Dalembert really wants at his age. He already has a reputation for not being a hard worker and not reaching his potential. I think he goes to the team that offers him the most money.

    Oh I agree - I'm holding out no hope that we might sign him. I'm just saying that if we did somehow manage to, he could be the starter because there's nobody on the roster who is clearly better than him.

    Well, he as unhappy and vocal about his reduced PT in Milwaukee last season. Always kind of struck me as a player who thought he was better than he really is.

    Didn't know that, so your probably right and minutes means something to him. Only thing I read was about his work ethics (not strong) and figured a guy like that can last a long time in the NBA coming off the bench getting rebounds and affecting shots. The more he sits on the bench, the more shelf life he has. But I don't follow him and didn't know he wanted more minutes last year. Guess the Bucks won't be making him an offer. :)

    10-15 minutes a game was terrible! Of course he'd complain. I think if he had 20-25 minutes, you wouldn't hear a peep from him.

    “@WojYahooNBA: Free agent center Sam Dalembert will meet with Mavericks officials on Thursday in Dallas, league sources tell Y! Sports.”

    That's actually a good destination for him
