No one wanted him after his child porn allegations. Now he is contributing big for a contending team.
A major improvement over Joel Anthony who lacked offense.
Sometimes you cant be picky.
I wish we had him instead of tyson. Birdman does not suffer from a lack of heart when the playoffs come around and he has a very cheap contract.
so we are rebuilding nuggets of 5 years ago, that's the height of our ambition,
they were not that good 5 years ago and today they are only 5 years older and uglier,
plus chris andersen is a weirdo

He's making a subtle but broader point. There has been a lot of discussion about "character" and other less tangible traits and how it should dictate how we judge talent. I think he's bottom-lining the fact that talent/skill should be the sole determinant behind who we acquire because we're strapped for resources and can't be picky.

He doesn't have any offense he was told what to do when his guys penetrated slash to the basket after hanging on the perimeter for thee pass or put back. We could have did the same thing with Chandler , but we didn't teach our guys in a spread offense how to position themselves when our guys dribble drive to look for the dish. Kmart does it from time to time
Scrubs look very good when there are stars to surround them.

Bird knows his role and never goes outside of it.
Their record Is crazy with him in the rotation. 45-5?
He is doing what rodman did, looks nuts but on the court does his role.
Its what they needed. I realize fans like to add parts without much thought.
Maybe he would have worked here, but this is not a dude Dolan is bringing in.
he is smart and very good in his limited role. and he's clearly a weirdo and morally corrupt. he may be a lowlife but not as much of a lowlife as dolan. if he comes here he'll just be part of a larger problem the knicks have.

Morally corrupt lowlife? What did he do?

he doesn't know. He has to many tats and has a mo hawk. Unless he is a lowlife because of his former substance abuse problems?

He brought that with him just like Kmart brought it with him because they both know spacing and angles. They also can finish with both hands.
I'm sure miami would take chandler over birdman so not sure why this is a comparison.
Would have been great- wish we'd signed him when Sheed went down.
I suppose I look on it as, if we'd signed him, we never would have signed K-Mart.

No, they wouldn't.

Well, there's other dead weight on the roster so we could have signed both. And we didn't even sign Kenyon until Kurt Thomas went down.

Why would they want or need chandler. They have bosh and Andersen? Anderson's abilities match what the heat do. Chandlers does not

As far I know they found nothing he was guilty of.

he was permanently banned from the league but later reinstated for using a banned substance. it was so bad he was out for two years.

That makes him stupid, not a morally corrupt lowlife.

It makes him mentally ill, not of low intelligence and now morally corrupt IMO.
