    Wow, this guy is a player. Just wanted toughts on him since we had him two years ago in preseason and cut him. Another casualty of JVG's reluctance to play rookies or just not good talent evaluation? Toughts?</p>

    I think he was with us one year ago, not two.</p>

    Look at who was on the preseason roster, and who we decided to keep. You can only have 15 players, and you generally don't want to cut players with guaranteed contracts.</p>

    I don't recall anyone here calling for Novak, Snyder, Head, or Spanoulis (all young players) to be cut in favor of Azubuike.</p>

    The one player, realistically, that could have been cut was Scott Padgett. And we had more more SG/SF depth than PF depth. That's what it boiled down to.</p>
