Seriously... this has been a problem all season...

I don't care who it is at this point... Chris Johnson, Ronny Turiaf... just get someone in there already!!!

This is just sad at this point that this team could be so flawed and we're now more than halfway through the season and have done nothing to fix it. I get that deals fell through at the deadline... but holy crap just cut marquis or someone and grab someone like turiaf... oh and lets play JJJ a little bit too, maybe moore as backup pg, bradley as backup sg and dooling can warm the bench

Those things (with some effort) might make this team a little better...

its coo bro we get to rent Ray and KG for the remainder of the season and squeeze 4 more playoff games out of them.  Good thing we did absolutely nothing at the trade deadline to help them or help our team long term.

Gotta disagree with you about tonight. It's all on the starting lineup. Our most effective unit was the bench + KG. The +/- tells the whole story.

It wasn't even the bigs, nobody guarded Thornton.

an all around pitiful performance but there were many times where I just wish we had someone like Turiaf in the paint...

I'll buy it, but I also wish I had Ronny's e-mail address so I could send that to him. I don't think anyone has ever said that about him.

Don't worry. Everyone is happy now, The players, Doc, Danny. They are all happy. The trade deadline has passed, no one got traded, and the team is still mediocre. But wait, Chris Johnson is on the way to save the day. That was an absolute embarrassment tonight.

They've needed a real center since the start of the season.

They've needed a real center since Shaq went down, and if we're talking about a reliable center... I'd say Robert Parish.

yeah it'd be nice if a 25 year old or so parish was walking through those doors right now...
