Yeah I was about to post this. Who?

When I want to cut through the crap, and get to real news, I turn to the Angola press.

I doubt that we will ever sign him. Do Finley and Howard need a backup? Is this young guy bigger or better than Harvey or Hood?

I'm very skeptical. A 26 year old who has never played in the NBA, who plays the same position as one of our team leaders and our promising sophomores....I dont see it.

Its certainly an odd news item.

Is that Divac?

[EricaLubarsky]

I was about to post that picture. You gotta love him taking it to Vlade.

yeah!

Yugoslavia's Vlade Divac, left, is fouled by Angola's Victor Muzadi during the opening match of the World Championships Aug. 29. Peja Stojakovic scored 13 points to lead Yugoslavia to 113-63 triumph. (By Mike Blake, Reuters)

50 point lead by yugoslavia....doesnt sound good for Muzadi and his team.

Yes, and that's Vic fouling him.

[bernardos70]

Nice Caricature of Divac. Oh wait, is this the guy? He looks kind of old to be "imported" into the league.

[EricaLubarsky]

6'7" and 26years old....

I can't imagine any possible scenario that the Mavs would take on another project..

[EricaLubarsky]

wha?

[mary]

EL, I don't know if its the same pic, but your post is giving the 'ol red X.

Edit: now I'm getting the pic

At least we know he can foul

[chumdawg]

I wonder if the NBA is expanding to Fort Worth or something. We could almost field two teams.

[nowitzki_prophecy]

Funny how a nice foul changed your thoughts about this guy...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Anyway,i hope it isn't true,and i really dont see the roster space...
so maybe he's a future option,and they took it out of proportions...

[DevinHarriswillstart]

Just what we need, another guard/forward....maybe Nellie won't play centers afterall [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].
