    Hey the Raptors cut Vladimir Stephania. He would give the Rockets some nice depth in the front court. He has a decent outside shot and appears to be able to take the ball to the basket... just check out the movies below:

    At the very least with him being 7ft and 236 pounds he adds another big body to use to set picks or play "Hack-a-Shaq" with.

    I think AC Green or Rony Siekaly is better.

    Don't we have 7 big men already? Including 3 centers? Why do we need another?

    O.K. so the guy is not "2 sandwiches" big, but he is 7ft with a nice wingspan and he looks pretty mobile. I'm sure he would be cheap and anything would have to be an upgrade over Collier's 'can't hold water' style of defense. If for no other reason than to make us deeper in the front court that everyone seems to think is weak and undersized. What do ya' think?
