    Nah, I'd say you speak for many. Would much rather role the dice with Vonleh developing than trading assets for the Boogie man.

    I'm all in with Vonleh, AND Uncle Festus. Honestly, I could be an idiot, but I have my most hope in those two. (and E.T.- once he gets some time playing with the team....)

    I agree with the OP. If we get Boogie, management might force him to wear ugly uniforms like Sacramento did.... shudder.

    I'm not a DMC fan BUT Sheed led the league in techs and he got us closer to a title than any other big man in the last 25 seasons.

    But we're to afraid it will create chemistry issues.

    I'm often surprised at how much boogie sells himself for some rebounds. There are times when you'd think he's some scrub fighting for minutes with the way he gets after it. I really wish you could be 100% sure of the chemistry fit, there's no denying that he would be an upgrade at the 5.

    How come we loved Przybilla for starting a near-fight in every game?

    Damian seems cool with him off the floor, and if Damian wants him here, then I trust him. He'd know better than all of us what it would mean to have him here.

    Very true. However, Dame is cool with DeAndre Jordan "off the floor" too.

    And? I'd love DeAndre here, he'd be perfect. Yeah, he's a guy you hate when he's not on your team but he plays with an edge and I can respect that.

    For me it not about having DMC on the team, it'a about what you give up to get him. He would make us better if we still had a team left to surround him. I think he would thrive in a winning environment with Dame AND CJ. But he has also showed he is no super star. He can't carry a team on his own. Not many centers can these days. So any trade offers for him has to make sense on our end. Don't gamble away our future for him or it will bite us in the ass. He is not dependable enough. In other words No CJ or Dame in the trade. If Sac laughs at us......so be it.

    Geeze. Ok, maybe he was a bad example. DeAndre could be ok here? Maybe? Maybe not? Hell, I don't know.... I do know we have had plenty of whiners in the past, and it's kind of refreshing to not have any on this team now. Damn refreshing.... Yeah, Sheed was AWESOME to have, but DMC, isn't Sheed.
