Thoughts on Rasheed Wallace?

by D-Cas on Jan 14, 2012 12:44 PM CST

Sam Smith has said for years that Sheed is known as a great locker room guy and apparently he has a lot of respect for Thibs. Big body, can shoot, veteran savvy, has the respect of the officials (ok that was a joke).

I'm a little interested in how well he can handle Kurt Thomas-esque minutes, but seems like it is worth taking a flier on him if he is in shape. Remember the old man PJ Brown helping the C's win their championship? You can't underestimate the value of experienced bigs.

i would do it

He can provide problems coming off the bench playing some minutes and is a threat from center something we don’t got. And with Noah and asik we can give him some minutes keeping these guys fresh and with rose and hamilton he will def get open shots

Yeah!

By all accounts he is a great teammate, he is friends with Rip, he can spread the floor and play a bit of defense. It gives us a couple more options. That said, I don’t think we necessarily need anyone else who thinks they deserve minutes at 4 and 5…but its Rasheed so I vote 100% yes.

He's old and his back doesn't work

thibs worked

With sheed in boston he likes thibs and so what if he is old we ain’t asking him to play alot with Noah and asik just play so rose has more of a scoring threat from center every once in awhile like kurt Thomas

Both Teams Played Hard.

"We wish Jordan were 7-feet, but he isn't. There just wasn't a center available. What can you do? Jordan isn't going to turn this franchise around. I wouldn't ask him to. He's a very good offensive player, but not an overpowering offensive player." Rod Thorn, then Bulls general manager, after drafting Michael Jordan

YES!

He could be the 2012 kurt thomas

This scares me.

Do we really need someone who smokes more weed than Noah as our 12th man?

we did have brad miller before..

Look
I didn’t want to offend anyone by saying the "f" word or generalizing my statement to any particular sex by saying "gays" or lesbians" or "bi’s" so "homos" is the most "politically correct" term. I’m just trying to be more tact in a tactless blog.
