    Just saw it dav....again why didn't we sign him (ASAP when he knew he was not going to be resigned at Denver) rather than bringing in D. Jones?

    It may have had to do with the length of time he was asking for, or perhaps he was hoping that a contender might want him. There could be any number of reasons beyond the FO being inept, which seems to be what most people want to conclude these days.

    I agree that he may have riding out hoping a contender would sign him...but that really bothers me even more if he saw us as a last option...does not really instill a lot of confidence...

    Good. I saw where Toronto needs a big and they mentioned Howard; nice to see us beat someone out for a change (meaning we probably had him committed before he found out about the Raps).

    ...and I'd really rather have him here than in Toronto...and agree with the folks that thought he might help (AA and Hollins in particular) with our young bigs...I just wish we could have brought him in sooner...but now works for me also...

    It could have been he wasn't sure at the time we needed him so we signed Jones at that time. I myself am not really sure....

    Charlotte, we're not as bad as playing in Canada. Just ask Zo.
