    I believe that given 30 minutes a night he can average close to a double-double. He doesn't do anything spectacular, but he's a solid dude. He'd be a good addition given how much I imagine he'll cost at this point.

    Think kind of like a poor man's Pekovic but healthier.

    I go Bismack, Koufos, Rolo in that order. Defense is the priority for a C next to Russell/Clarkson/Kobe/LMA.

    Exactly. Given our limited options, I'm not complaining.

    Yeah I mean Koufous would be here for a very specific role. If he can protect the rim like a beast then it's fine by me.

    I don't want to pay the kid anything ridiculous though. Look at what Ed Davis got.

    BTW - would we take Kofous over Davis?

    Same here. I'd go exactly in that order.

    Koufos will be there to do the heavy work, setting picks, rebounding, boxing out and making the right passes. With 24, Russell, Clarkson, Randle...the skill players can do the scoring. He'll be he Greek Kurt Rambis... For awhile there, I was about to say Big Z, then I realized I'd sound like a fool.

    Yes, we would. Memphis had to make that decision themselves on who to pay Koufos or Davis. They chose Koufos.

    I might because Koufos is 7'1" and Davis is 6'9" which is basically the only thing holding Ed back. Koufos might cost a similar amount to Davis.

    Technically this is all FAs. The other one was specific to LMA.

    Not a beast defensively, but he's solid. Beast would be Bismack Biyombo.

    ya I mean I know that the LMA watch thread would eventually be turned into the Official LaMarcus Aldridge thread if we get him

    Where's Bismack in all this FA talk? Has he even met with anyone?
