Big Al, because when the "big three" move on, a team centered around Big Al and Rondo would be pretty solid.

A healthy Manu would arguably help us more this season, but either player would put us over the top, so why not go with the young stud?

Can Anyone do better than Manu??

Seems perfect to me outside of Salary.

(...)

And if we could have either guy this year would you want Duncan Or Manu???

Are you serious? Duncan?

I'll take it even further. I'd take Duncan over KG.

Yeah, me too.

TA all-day baby! I know alot of the C's complain to the refs just like the rest of the league, but Manu complains even when he gets the call nevermind every single time someone comes w/in 15 feet of him. Manu can keep his Euro-Flop, Mike Milleresque hair & joke of 6th player award out of a green uniform thank you very much! 6th player wasn't meant for the Manu's & Jason Terry's of the world who happen to come in 5 minutes into the game & often lead their team in points & minutes, it was meant for guys like Powe & Brandon Bass!

There's no way a rational person would take Bass or Powe over Manu. The guy may flop, but we've got quite a flopping bunch on the C's. (Pierce and Powe, and last year Posey) Manu plays hard, shoots well, plays smart, and is pretty clutch. Anyone who says they wouldn't want him on their team is silly.

I just don't like how the 6th Man Award is consistently going to guys who are All-Stars and/or one of the top 3 players on their team. TA is truly 6th man, but how can he compete for that award when he plays 20 minutes a night while Terry plays 36? Its nice that I can worry about these types of insignificant things since the C's are rizollin'!

i'd want big al to come off the bench and perk to still start, becuase with all the minutes available at center, and perks fouling habits, Al would probably be getting more minutes anyways, and think about Al Jefferson going up against some of the leagues backup bigs.

Big Al Jefferson. I don't care if the other candidate is Micheal Jordan, circa 1993. Big Al Jefferson.
