hope this is not true... our medical staff is not as good as phoenix.lol

Yeah, Redd had an amazing comeback with the Suns, considering how awful his last years with the Bucks were. If I were him, I would want to stay there to keep as healthy as possible :)

assuming Joseph makes the team, C's should be looking for one more big man

This seems sketchy at best.  Although I could see him as a camp invite, to battle for a spot with Christmas.

What does he have left at this point as a true contributor?  I mean I know he played near a full season for Phoenix last year, but I think we already have better alternatives on our team.

I was just going to ask how much actual usefullness Redd still has in him?  I just don't see how he helps us any more than what we've already got when we really need some more beef up front if anything.

His last 15 games (April) he averaged 18 minutes and produced 11.4 pts on 40.5% 3-fg%.

You think Christmas or Joseph are going to give us that?

I feel it would be a no brainer to have him come to camp on perhaps a partially gauranteed contract, like Christmas.  If he would go for that, great.  He probably has better offers.

Granted, we already have more good solid talent than we have minutes (Bradley, Lee, Dooling, Terry, ...) but an asset is an asset.  Mid season, Redd might be able to be part of a trade to get something decent back but I don't think Christmas will have that kind of value.

Hope this is not true

He is a fossil.  I wouldn't mind him as the 12th-15th man on this team, but I'd rather take my chances with younger guys and bring in as many big men as possible and hope that one of them makes the team.

YES!!YES!!YES!!
Love this

Even though I doubt he'd see much, if any, playing time, I'd still rater have him than a Pavolivic/Wafer type guy
Baring an injury, he's a guy that could step in a hit open shots
With his size he could play SG/SF

Rondo,Jet,Dooling
Lee,Bradley,REDD
Pierce,Green,
Bass,Sullinger
KG,Wilcox,Collins, Melo

One spot open to a rookie or late season pick up
It's not like Doc plays rookies enough
So keeping Joseph and Xmas glued to the bench in suits is pointless
Let then play in dleague
Can't stop, Rondo!

Oh god no...

Can we please resign Marquis instead?  He actually plays defense.

He'd probably play a Michael Finley(2010) type role on this team. About 100 minutes on the whole season and then when he's actually put into the game, he's terrible.
