he was a dissapointment for orlando, but he could be just a case where it takes a young big man a tad longer to develop and Pheonix was smart to sign him. He has played very very well in his back up minutes and you can see what a real good PG can do getting guys better shots. I guess the rule is dont give up on a 7 footer--especially an athletic one until all is truly lost. The Suns signed him for 2 years so hes their property.
I finally got to watch Lamarcus Aldridge[Texas C/PF] play extended minuts last night and came away impressed. he's skinny--perhaps 6-11 215, but hes got some nice talent and his pretty athletic for his size. Need to see more of him against better opponent, but definitely keep on the radar screen
Yeah we sure could use steve hunter, but give pheonix credit, they ve done everything right for their franchise for what seems like 3 years in a row to get into the spot they are now. They need to use their depth a bit more, as to avoid burn out. They also own the Cicago Bulls pick next year, so they likely will be in position 4-8 as well. Not a bad job. Lampe played pretty good last night, but he is the opposite of the team make up. they are all high flyers and he is a banger and a shooter. Hes going to be good too, Im sure of it.
