I've only seen this guy play a few times but I like what I see and I think he would be a great back up small forward/power forward for us. Realgm said he was being shopped for some bigs, how about Big Baby, Patty O', and someone like Pruitt to make it work. Then we would have roster spots open for people like Mutumbo, Starbury, or Walker. I know we would be giving up a lot for this guy but it would also open up some space on the roster.

The nuggets love Kleiza.  Unfortunately for us, we simply don't have the expendable talent to pry him away.

I would love to have this guy, he would fit in very well.  He's kind of like a Scalabrine with talent. 


Unfortunately I agree with Chris.  They would want more than we have to offer for him.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."

He's been underwhelming this season, to put it gently. I don't think they love him that much anymore. I agree we don't have enough assets to get him.
