    I wonder where his head is right now. After getting traded twice before the start of his second season, he seemed to welcome a little stability. But, he also seems like the kind of player who would rather be getting big minutes on a shitty team than buried deep on the bench on a contender.

    What am I going to do with my T-Rob jersey if we trade him!?!?

    El Prez, is that when I wear it and become uber cool because he's not even on the team anymore?

    My inner voice (one of several) says T-Rob is an uncoachable dolt.

    26th in bench scoring. Cake needs some sugar.


    Afflalo would be my first choice. Chandler 2nd.

    I don't think he's uncoachable, but he might be a dolt. His bball IQ is pretty poor. I still want him to succeed because he seems likeable and has gone through some serious personal stuff. I wouldn't hesitate in trading him however.

    I have no idea what his work ethic is like, but he still makes rookie mistakes (forces bad shots, loses his man on defense, commits stupid fouls and unforced TOVs) and can't make a FT to save his life. When you see our other young bigs making great strides, it makes you wonder what Thomas has been working on, if anything, during the off season. When they came into the league TRob was light years ahead of Meyers Leonard - not so much because TRob was NBA ready, but because Meyer's so clearly wasn't. Now Meyers hasn't just caught and passed him he's practically lapped him.

    I voted for Prince. We need Defense in the 2nd unit.

    Afflalo and Martin are 1a and 1b. I think, given the price, Prince would rank ahead of Chandler.
    None of them are sure-fire additions that'll propel us to the Finals.

    Afflalo might be. When he was with Orlando I viewed him in the same category as Wes.

    I remember two years ago (?) he was balling in ORL. But aside from that I haven't really heard much about him.

    He was great in orlando, especially last year. Averaged over 18 a game and really was a problem in the post, and shot over 40% beyond the arc.

    Ah, was it last year? I knew it was recent, but I can't keep years straight any longer!
