    Exactly. Tucker has that Chuck Hayes center of gravity thing that makes him really tough to move in the post. He can put a body on most big men in the NBA, which is what makes him so valuable as a defender. It also makes him an excellent rebounder.

    No more complaining about the dollar amount. Toronto wanted him back and offered him a bigger contract at 11 million per and we only offered 8. Also glad to see that his current team wanted to keep him at that dollar amount. It shows they valued what he brought to the team.

    bring back Nene, get Melo, and then bring in some cheap big that can rebound and catch a pass so that he can help us in the paint defensively and Harden/CP3 can make him look better than he actually is offensively

    Well, he probably ends up with more here than their offer. Gets double taxed.

    so does this mean Harden will recruit Ibaka to take less and come here? We still need takers for Anderson.

    Now your just picking popular names. Taj Gibson does nothing for our team. Just clogs the lane for what we do best. And hes the same age as tucker

    Tucker is a 6'6" patrick beverley

    Good. Means we can play Ariza less and not have to worry about flat footed Sam Dekker's slow ass getting burnt by every SF alive.
