    Oh if we get Aldridge I'm all in. At that point it is a perfect fit.

    That better be the only reason he's mentioned with us.

    I bet you are... How's your passing? More importantly...your free throw percentage? Oh and while you're at it, what's your shooting distance? You know everyone and their grandma is gonna sag off you. :cool:

    I'd get him if we didn't acquire Aldridge.

    I shudder to think he's our starting center WITHOUT Aldridge. That scares the crap out of me.

    i've never seen much of that Upshaw guy either and i can tell you he's probably already better than Sacre

    Wouldn't hesitate. Probably cheaper than Robin Lopez, but would give similar production.

    Chill your grasp of this player is poor, but we know who we're talking about. You're writing him off in the face of people who know him better.

    You're better than that man.

    We started Hill last season and won 21 game whilst shooting 20 foot jumpers clanking off the rim? Could it be worse?

    Ok that's fair. I'll admit I'm hating and should probably watch some film.

    Again - next to Aldrige, A-Ok. Otherwise I want to trade for our center if we can't get RoLo.

    Koufos is a solid big man. His defense is very solid. He's young enough to grow with our players too. I wouldn't mind signing him.

    I just wished he would give something a little more on offense (reason why I would prefer Robin Loepz), but you get what you pay for.

    I would take Koufos over Lee/Hibbert because he'll be a much lower cost. We could sign him, then go after Tobias Harris.

    if we're talking about sacre, then shouldn't you be asking me about my cheerleading and towel waving skills instead?

    Yeah I think Koufos is a little worse than Lopez offensively, but he's also a little bigger and rebounds a little better I think. I don't think the disparity in talent is THAT crazy and I think RoLo will be more expensive.

    You guys really believe in this guy.

    I can't deny it because I haven't seen it. I'll trust you guys and keep an open mind if happens.

    He has a cool name though: Konstantine Demetrios "Kosta" Koufos.

    I would for sure bring it up, followed by me looking at my shoes in a very awkward way when I have to tell him that Sacre's FG% is 44% for his career.
