The former lottery pick, 5th overall, is an Unrestricted FA. I would like Zeke to offer this kid the LLE and replace Bruno Sundov in our roster. If he fails, then it is a cheap experiment.

Denver took "Skita" ahead of Amare!

While Nene is still very young, Denver has yet to realize much from the 7 and 5th picks that year.

I thought i read somewhere that he was going back to Europe. Maybe worth an LLE deal and a spot on the NBDL roster?

I'm all for it. Great size and he's a pretty good athlete. Probably go overseas or something though...

Yes they did. Talk about a double bogey! Giving this kid a chance who MIGHT have some untapped potential is a good gamble in my humble opinion at a little over $1M per.

Skita had a coaching carousel in Denver. He had a bunch of coaches looking to save their jobs, thus did not trust the young players. Kiki then got lucky and drafted Melo and traded for KMart. Just a string of bad luck for the tall russian.

I hope his handlers explain to him that it would be hard for him to come back to the NBA is he leaves. They should look at Dino Radja.

Who the great Celtic. Seriously, Radja was million times better than what's his face, Skittles.
