O'Brien doesn't have the balls to sit him down and get on his ass for this
crap so we could be in for a long season. I would take a 4 who can play
inside an rebound over this guy.

We sign Strickland. While the hell did we waste money on Palacio?  We could
have had Shammond Williams or even El-amin cheap.


Maybe some trade is brewin' moving one of our shitty centers and Palacio for
something. Raef Lafrentz?
