I know people may not feel this is the absolute best we could have gotten, but it's not a perfect world. We did fine here. I think it's become apparent that the team is better off without Martin now, and that's not a knock on Kevin as I've always been a fan.
We got a young tough big in Landry who really is great off the bench. He'll provide energy and hustle; he'll be a fan favourite pretty soon.
I know everybody is sleeping on Dorsey but I hope he gets a chance. This kid is a monster defensively. It's just a shame that he is so small. He's about 6'8'' which is far too small to play signigicant minutes at C, but he can come in for 10-15 mins a game and rebound the ball. He's a very good athlete - strong, good vertical, quick. I loved him coming out of Memphis. If he gets the minutes he will produce in the rebounding department as well as chipping in with a block or two. His development may be hindered by Brockman, though. Brock is tougher but Dorsey is a much better athlete. He was probably just a throw in but I hope he gets a chance. His potential is Ben Wallace. Will he reach it? Doubtful. But possible.
This cap room could be very useful in the summer. I won't hold my breath for Bosh, who I think would be a perfect fit with 'Reke and co, but I'm not expecting a few MLE veteran signings. I will give Geoff the benefit of the doubt until the summer, but he has to make better signings than he has in the past. I don't really trust him in FA.
Good trade. Team should get better and the hustle and excitement should return. Also in much better shape financially.
Posts are timing out and taking like 20 minutes to post. I wonder how this trade compares to the Webber trade, as far as board activity? When's there been more board activity? VF, Brick...I know you know.
