I think Deron wants both: players (1) with talent who don't (2) cause problems with team chemistry. Actually, when you're talking about the 13th-14th man on the squad, having a player who will play hard in practice and be a good cheer-leader is probably more important than talent.

Well as of right now, the player we get wont be a cheerleader. He will actually be a player who will see minutes backing up whoever starts at center until Okur gets back.

Yeah, and whoever we go after will presumably be sought within the parameters set by severe budget restraints, unfortuntately. We're not gunna git a Dwight Howard caliber player for the league minimum, ya know?

My comment was simply: "Probably not a bad back-up, for cheap, especially given that he's a homeboy of Deron's." Now, if we're lookin to spend big money, trade AK, or sumthin, then we aint lookin for a cheap back-up.
