quit it with all this we need a big man….

We need a bench… We didn’t make the playoffs because our guys were gassed at the end of the season and didn’t show up for the big games.

Andris was dropping 12-15 board nights toward the end of the season + he is only 22 years of age. He is a big guy who runs with this team.

..all due respect. Andris got destroyed by Ronny Turiaf in almost every game he played. He can’t handle any of the premier big men. And he’s a FA like I said.

Yes, our bench is weak, but our major concern is Defense and Rebounding. A Dominant Big Man will take care of that. We can easily convert Andris to a PF when we get a good big man. We gave up the most points and we gave up the most rebounds. We can easily fill in spots on the bench this FAncy and through the draft.

A reason for the bench is the under utilization of the Rookies. Marco Belinelli is greatly under rated for his Defense which he was used for often when he was with Climamio Bologna. Instead of using Brandan Wright, we signed Chris Webber.

Dubz need:

1.) B-Wright to gain considerable overall strength this offseason in order to pair up with Biedrins next year. With his length and athleticism, the added strength will help our interior D and rebounding woes tremendously.

2.) To get a rebounding, defensive-minded center (Thabeet/Hardin/Dorsey) to back up Biedrins through the draft.. Hardin/Dorsey might be available when the Dubz pick in the 2nd round.

3.) To get a big point guard (Crittenton/Snow) to back up Baron, so he can defend the opposing 2 guard, while Monta guards the pg like what Baron and Monta does already. The problem with CJ is that Monta and him are way too small to guard opposing backcourts.

4.) To make an offer for Childress and see if ATL will match it. To me, he is Pietrus with an IQ and we would need to replace Pietrus’ defensive mentality and energy. Childress would thrive in an uptempo system and he could start on certain nights based on matchups allowing Monta to provide instant offense off the bench like what Ginobili does. Bring the only fro left in the game back to the yay.

5.) To re-sign Buki to a dual role contract as the backup sg and the personal trainer for B-Wright and Jelly-Beli. It’s time to turn them into Hans and Franz!

Get Brand for sure if he opts out, trade for a 3 point shooter, and draft Dorsey in second round, find a veteran big PG in FA. That would be a playoff team next year

I like his intensity but he would not be able to guard any of the beasts you named at the end there if he played the 4 for the Dubz.

He is also not as good of a rebounder as you would expect for someone with such a physique. He’s a strong dude and probably even bigger than Barkley ever was, but his mentality is not there to be a low post force. Artest likes to settle for long range shots when he should be punishing taller guys down low with his quickness and bulldozing smaller guys.

I agree with the Dorsey pick because we need someone to back up Biedrins and do some dirty work. I like Hardin better because he is longer and has slightly more O than Dorsey. Also Hardin is a bay area product too.

Rush could probably help us too, but nobody knows if he can be better than what he showed at Kansas because he never had to take over a game there. But the good thing is that he was counted on to guard the opposition’s best perimeter player and he did fairly well.

Here’s my Checklist:

1) Get an athletic bruiser i.e Ben Wallace type of player, hell even Brandon Bass from the Mavericks kind of guy. Answer: Joey Dorsey out of Memphis. This is the official begining of the Joey Dorsey movement.

2) Pull the cord with POB, Kosta to Kosta, MP2, Barnes and Croshere to obtain new players that will actually play and can contribute.

3) Bring back the 1990’s style uniforms!!!

4) Play the bench more regardless if we are down or not. All other coaches in the NBA rest their players during the game no matter what-Nellie should too.

Answer to why we missed the Playoffs. We weren’t good enough. Point blank. The before mentioned should get us back in the Playoffs though. Go Dubs!

what dre needs is a good PF next to him to provide weakside D help and rebounding. back door cuts, alley oops, the high screen and roll killed us this year b/c there was nobody else in the paint but dre.
that being said, dre at the 4 and kosta at the 5 is pretty intriguing, though kosta too, seems to prefer to take jump shots and finesse his way around the basket. what’s up with these Euros, doesn’t anybody bang over there?
i’ll disagree w/ getting rid of croshere. when healthy, he can provide a lift off the bench, something we lacked all year.

put Kosta in gym for 24/7

he’ll be MonStar

With the “Asian cheerleaders” comment. I’m actually surprised the Powers that Be let it slide.

Not that there’s anything wrong with Asian cheerleaders (indeed, there’s a lot very right with them) but you’re basically saying that the Ws should fire a few black, white, and/or latin cheerleaders because of the color of their skin. Please, do tell me if I’m mischaracterizing your comment.

The other points are all either based on fallacies (#1), overly simplistic (#4), or totally obvious (#2,3,6,7).

i don’t care what decent they are as long as they are smokin.

Dub chicks right now are ok. They have room to improve just like the dubz.
