He chose to play in Minnesota and they screwed him. He could have played for us but thought he was too good for us.
Now he's trying to decide if he should play here again?
Get outta here son
I was about to type it's slim pickings at this point, but there are a couple of reasonable options:
POWER FORWARDS: Antawn Jamison, Al Harrington, Lamar Odom, Tyrus Thomas, Ivan Johnson, Anthony Tolliver, Drew Gooden, Shavlik Randolph, Hakim Warrick, Louis Amundson, Chris Wilcox, Yi Jianlian, Troy Murphy, D.J. White, Kurt Thomas, Malcolm Thomas, Jared Jeffries, Ike Diogu, Kevin Jones, Juwan Howard, DaJuan Summers
CENTERS: Nikola Pekovic, Jason Collins, Joel Przybilla, Johan Petro, DeSagana Diop, Cole Aldrich, Earl Barron, Hamed Haddadi, Henry Sims, Eddy Curry, Hilton Armstrong, Kyrylo Fesenko, Darko Milicic, Dwayne Jones, Dexter Pittman

I'd like Ivan on the team, but I wouldn't mind taking a risk with: Odom, Tyrus, or most of those PF's listed, really

That's a lot of talent that you listed. Every nba team out there could use Skene from this list.
Knicks are good at this point. Whoever they add would be cake
How come Pekovic gets no love? I thought he was doing pretty good last year.

I think he was offered $14M per and wants more, something like that.

Ouch - that's more than Tyson money. Ok he is def not worth more than 14MM
Id like to see GG give Shavlik Randolph some consideration for the 15th spot. Former Dukie tore up China ( I know its China) to the tune of 34 and 15 avgs then did a real good job for Celts when they picked him up. he was reluctantly released due to numbers which was not liked by Celtic faithful . Kid plays hard at all times, hits the boards on both sides and can score inside. He's 6"10", 240 gives a full effort on D.
On another note, dont see where Leslie get playing time so I wouldnt be married to him at the 14th roster spot. Rather see a established pro or another project for a need who has as much or higher upside down road. Finally, wonder what GG thought of Lituian kid, he's not ready but certainly looked atheletic on that video.

Sure he is. The guy is a beast on both ends of the floor and on the boards. Tyson is not worth $14mil

He was offered 12 and wants 14 I believe plus he has had injury issues. He does give you a lot of what Tyson does on offense and more. His D is improving but I don't think he is on Tyson level as an all around defender.

I do think Flip would do that trade if it was possible. Oh well, I'll just hold out hope for a Asik &Tyson mega trade. lol.
