Default RE: BIG MAN UPDATE from Fort Worth Star Telegram

I've actually watched Brown a little bit this year.... and you can see the potential. You get the feeling that he just needs more time. He could still develop into a dominant big man... at a minimum he's going to have a long NBA career. At times he very effective initiating the offense from the high post. (Wiz runs the same Pete Carrol based passing / motion offense that Sac runs) ... and he has some nice moves on the low block. Like most young big men he lacks consistency. Unfortunately, I agree with Master C, I don't see a scenario that gives the Mavs any shot at getting him.

Tsakalidis is the definition of a robotic player (having no fluidity to his game). Granted I have not watched him much this year (he hardly plays) ... Watching him you don't get the feeling that he's a real basketball player, rather he just looks like a very big dude who gets some bounces offensively & can bog things down defensively due to his size. He's not a high energy player. That said, I suppose he could help, but I'm not sure he beats out Fortson for the minutes at question.
