I wanted this guy in a Rose trade. He would REALLY help us. A superior athlete in the backcourt and then Crawford could get all the backup PG time.

His last year in college. He's got a Ben Gordon like build. He's really chisled and could really rebound the ball in college. 8 boards a game is solid for CBB powerforwards.. he did it at SG.

With Houston on IR we should have an active roster spot. Put Bruno there and we have 2.

if you want to have a gritty tough team get gritty tough players. Sato is one.. probably a poor man's James Posey, but he's a rook and might find a role here.

Make that: Romain Sato signs.

I liked this kid last year ....he's uber athletic.....A guard rotation of Steph, Craw to Swing and Sato is as athletic as you get.....

He's supposed to be a very good defender. A little small, but long wing span. Good hops.

I am sure that he is better than Coochie and Brewer...We need guys that can produce on both ends of the court....

could there be a chance this was part of the Nazr deal? We will trade you Nazr and Brewer for Rose and 2 picks (so the salary works) and you release Sato so we can sign him....this seems to be the trend in the league as a way around the trade restrictions and maybe this is why we haven't signed a guard...

so that Jermaine Jackson thing is not official. I hope not I rather have Sato then a 29yr old in the CBA.

someone posted this in the Jackie Butler thread. Glad its not official. a 29yr PG...


According to an insider on the realgm board we are also going to sign Jermaine Jackson (PG who is a free agent out of the CBA). In the CBA he averaged close to 21 ppg, 12 apg, and 6 rpg.

Height/Weight: 6-5/204
