Does this make any sense? Is our Front Office this retarded? Shouldn't we be getting rid of a player rather than adding another? Color me perplexed.

Yeah, who knows what they are thinking. Maybe this is a sign of trades to come???

Ok, there I fixed it.

Regardless of whether we do or not, WHY are they even talking about it? How about we get Richard on the team before we add any FA's...

Possibly that means that Blount will soon be leaving and Ratliff bought out. Who knows, just throwing some speculation out there. Obviously there would have to be more players going to make this begin to make sense but just speaking in general terms.

He could be a good add. He's a 25 year old 7' big guy that has only played one year. He didn't play many minutes but contributed with rebounds and a few points when he did play. There are no stats for him last year for the Pacers but he was involved in the Al Harrington trade. He could be a good backup C.

John Edwards

Before we even begin to discuss this, we need to get rid of one player AND not sign Richard.

Why? This makes no sense, unless a trade is imminent...

I thought I had heard of this guy before...

Here is where: sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2110951

Why are we going to sign him? I have NO idea.

I know there are preliminary things that need to happen, but I didn't even know who the guy was and I couldn't find a stat line on NBA.com so I did some digging and thought that I would share it.

Yeah, gotcha. Regardless of my negativity thanks for the link.

Getting a big guy is a good idea. I've never herd of Edwards however.. Yet the T-Wolves, have to many people on the roster as it is!!!! Wouldnt trading for a center be a better idea... I dont get this.

This is one of the most irrational moves I have ever seen. In no way shape or form does this resemble a coherent move. McHale, like usual, has no significant trades or other moves in the works. The whole team is now worse for having the 37th player signed.

I can only imagine some sort of trade must be imminent. Otherwise how do you go and sign somebody when we're already a man over the maximum roster size?
