Yeah, wouldn’t that have been an interesting interview?

Lol. Yes, I don’t know how I’ve managed without you.

Najera is more athletic and is certainly more versatile. But what Turiaf and Najera provide to their teams is essentially the same. They bring energy and all-out effort. Najera may be capable of defending a few “swingmen” but he’s rarely successful at doing so (I like George Karl, but I don’t know what he was thinking by putting Najera on Kobe in the first round). Like Turiaf, he’s much more effective against power forwards and centers.

Hoffy – I don’t think Turiaf and Najera are very similar at all. Turiaf is a quick-moving athletic big man who uses his 6-10 250lb frame to his advantage by muscling bigs down low. He is a good shot blocker and brings energy to the floor. I enjoyed watching him and Vujacic run the floor during the regular season in 0708. Where was he in the playoffs??

Najera is a smart hustle-man who acts more as a pesky defender to bigs. His 240lb frame allows him to body-up with bigs inside, but his height (listed as 6-8, probably closer to 6-6) makes him more of an annoying pest that can create turnovers. Najera’s combination of size and quickness allow him to guard bigs and swing men. He can shoot a little bit, too. Every once in a while, his three-ball finds the bottom of the net.

Don’t you miss having me argue with everything you write?

hahahaha…remember when he tried to get a job at Circuit City back when he was with the Bulls?? hahahahahha…

I agree, Artest might be insane.
There goes Gilbert again…I repeat…the Wizards are IDIOTS!
Posey should stay with Celtics…easy. Take the 2 years.
Now the Nuggets have lost Najera AND Camby…they must REALLY think Nene is gonna stay healthy this year…and what do you think they have planned for that 10 mil trade exception??
