we obviously need some more depth at the G position w/Mobley rumored to be mulling retirement & Roberson being undersized at the 2G spot & not all that good to begin with...

how about taking a flyer on a kid like James White, the SG from Cincinnati? he's a UFA & could be had on a minimum contract... he's only 26 & at 6'7" has great size at the 2G spot... this dude has some of the sickest hops i've ever seen... is dunking the only thing he can do? i'd figure some NBA team would have taken a chance on a kid w/this much physical ability... anyone know why this kid isn't in the NBA right now?

he put up 8 & 3 w/SA last year, that's better than Fishlips or your boy Morris Almond.

Pretty much... if we take a flyer on him, it's really to bump someone else up from the end of the bench

God knows we can't afford to lose Roberson.

i liked Kenny... dude was good for some highlight reel stuff... just saying what do we have to lose? Turd isn't giving us anything & Marbury's likely to be bought out eventually... Roberson is barely giving us anything as it is... if not this guy, then there's gotta be other SG FA's out there for the taking that would make more sense.

Never said that. All I said was White stinks. And he does.

i can picture this guy running the floor on the fast break & dunking on fools in the lane w/that crazy athleticism of his... tell me Duhon couldn't get this kid easy baskets in transition.

Would rather have a young player known for his range at SG. So far no one has talked about his jumper.

If the dude can jump from the free throw line and go between the legs and dunk then he might be able to jump from the 3pt line too!!! Wouldn't that be sick?

This guy is a total head case he was at Florida and all he wanted was his shots and dunks.

I don't know him and have watched very little of his game. My guess is with that athleticism there has to be some off the court/motivational/personality issues that are keeping him from the NBA

I just hope that people will like me

Only if it counts as a three.
