Obviously not Dunnyboy I'm talking about, I'm talking about Rudy Gay :mrgreen:

Really not liking this situation with Diogu and reckon targeting a SF that can fit well is the way to go and the way to go right now before the season starts!!!!

Gay is a rookie but has shown that he is an ath;ete with a pretty good allround game at least! He would start immediately and fit in well with Baron and JRich as well!

I wasn't for trading for Artest and that was mainly because he is a headcase but also because Diogu's name was mentioned as being involved in the trade but it is understandable that some now would be barking that that would have been the best way to go, given what is happening with Diogu now

Just not sure I'd do it for Rudy Gay. And I'm not sure Memphis would do it, either. They have more need for a SF than a PF.

The Grizz are full of SG/SF players! They are in need of big players, especially now that Gasol is injured

They only have Mike Miller, Eddie Jones (who is in the last year of his contract and won't be re-signed) and Gay. On the other side, they're loaded at PF (Gasol, who will be back by late December, Swift, Warrick...).

Warrick is more of a SF and that makes 4 very good players (MMiller, EJones, Gay and Warrick) at SF/SG. Cardinal is nothing good, same with Swift so only Gasol is really a good big for them

If we can play Dun at PF, they can definately play Warrick at PF.

My point is that the Grizz have horrible bigs except Gasol! Diogu would be such an upgrade

Prince is probably better than his stats show and he might explode this season. He would be a nice fit here and would probably be obtained for cheaper then guys like Rashard Lewis would

That is why they could use Diogu. Gay has potential but they also have Warrick, Miller and Jones who can play SG/SF and so Gay will likely not get over 30mins a game but in the Warriors he definately would! migya make the ring fall on ya

I doubt they'd do it though because Prince is one of their young players in that team full of vets so with Rasheed, Hamilton, and Billups older, Prince will be the future.

Don't hate yourself in the morning... sleep 'til noon.

But now that BWallace has gone, they're in need of a real; dependable and talented big guy, unless either McDyess and/or Mohammed can fill that void (possible). Diogu is a real talent and Dumars may see him as their starter at PF and Rasheed at Center. Prince is valuable to them but it is easier to get good SFs than it is to get good PFs. Diogu would have to show that he can play the defense because that is the major weapon of the Pistons
