Good signing for the minimum. Let's hope he can do something other than dunk this time around.

Love it!!! Brings a excitement factor to the team we didn't have before. Plus I think everyone would agree UPS > McGuire.

Not on defence, Offence yes. I would say they were similar to be honest. I know i would rather watch UPS tho!

I really like this signing, especially for the minimum. Now, float some of that money saved from signing UPS to Kwame and Reggie Williams and that'd be a decent haul for free agency. At least for the purposes of a team at the beginning stages of rebuilding.

Completely agreed. I'd take Thornton or Williams, but I prefer Williams.

DY!!!! Good to see you back on the boards!

Eh. Good role guy I guess and the price is right. Seems Cunningham is looking for something better and I doubt we'll match much higher than his QO anyway.

glad to see UPS back home, but seems like he never left since he practiced here during the lockout at times.

Uh, ok. He is signed because he knows the team, the place, doesn't mind/wants to play for us and because the FA window is too short too get creative. Otherwise this signing would be a longshot. Safe way how to fill up the bench, no harm done, no improvement made... and another forward?!

I am looking forward how the Cunningham situation will be dealt with. He may have an offer from someone else on table and I could see that how Bobcats dealt the qualifying option pickup just after the marijuana thing wasn't the most encouraging thing. Plus if he sees himself more as a 4, we are not that attractive place with our PF logjam.

Glad to be back. Thanks :D

I'll never like Brown until he learns how to do something other than dunk, but I bought my tankwagon tickets early so I'm riding this thing out til the end

Oh wow.
UPS always had more upside than McGuire...whoever that dude is.
Glad to see him come back, he always worked hard when he was on the court.

I'm liking this signing for one reason...Poetry, with D.Brown.

It's not like he'll be busy playing or anything.

Somewhere, Larry Brown's heart stopped beating for a second.

We got our pre-game dance man back everybody.

We could not start the season without our gre- game dance man, now we can start the show (season)

Very happy to have UPS back. I dont think the Cats wanted to let him go, glad they pursued him again. I still think he can turn out to be a very good player.
Pre game dances just got better. Kemba and/or UPS...doesn't matter. Should be intertaining

Dante's the better player, but if he doesn't want to be here, fuck him. Despite not living up to the hype (or at least the expectations I had for him coming out of the draft) it's good to have UPS back in the fold and at no risk whatsoever.

Also, does anyone have the link to that video of Wayno in that contest where he declares his love for UPS? That was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Hopefully you guys know what I'm talking about.

Welcome back UPS, after watching his accelerate gym video, seems like he put that work in during the off-season

I'm glad we signed him, it feels good to have someone who would rather play for us than a big market.

He'll definitely get some PT with us in our current state.

Question? Do we consider UPS as part of our youth rebuilding core. Some considered Dante as part of it. Or he can be considered the Tier 2 core with D J White and maybe D J Augustin.

It was rather cringe worthy mate, that answer you gave was hilarious.
At least your man UPS is back, good luck!

Lmao, Wayne is the man. I was at that game, knew he was going down to do the contest, figured he'd say something about UPS, and I was still dying laughing when it happened. And was fortunate enough to make fun of him after the game :p eh, Wayne?

And Wayne, it's Henderson County Schools, how much can they make fun of you? As someone who spent the first 6 years of my life in Fletcher, I'm not aware of some enlightened society there. Just sayin. If I wanted to say something, it'd be along the lines of you being the wrestling coach that is in love with an NBA player...hmmm.

I was at that game too. I didn't know who it was till he bought up Derrick Brown. My uncle was looking at me like I was crazy (he had no idea what was going on).
