I know a lot of you may think Sanders is a screwball. But please try to remember that Paul Pierce once was viewed that way by us. I think it never got lower than the time he pushed tinselly and came to the presser with a bandage around his jaw, then said he had a broken jaw. But we gorget that bc he won and was young. I hope it is the same for Sanders.

That video with it's little green and red colored court circles somehow sold me on Sanders haha.

I'm for it, Lets get a defensive anchor.

Would a Net's pick and filler get Sanders?

Thanks. It sold me too. I was debating on sharing it because I didn't know how to post it but I'm glad I did/tried.

I read somewhere were the Bucks suspended him for 5 games, and he's blaming the laws for that, and is looking into legalizing it int he state/country.

I don't really want to touch a guy who doesn't take blame on himself and blames others for his mistakes.

Also he should be working and making his game better, not extra curricular activities.

In a perfect world but most of nab and nil smoke weed. We can point the finger all we want but the fact is he is a beast defensively and would make us a great team.

I get that. But if he's blaming society that he got caught smoking weed, I don't have much faith he's working on his game to be this defensive beast that he was for a season to earn that huge contract. I hope Im wrong and maybe a change in environment will curve his attitude.  I hope they can nab him for the TE. No way I'd give up any 1st rounders for him. Higher risk that he'll be a bust than Love leaving after one year.

I'd rather make a move at Gortat.

I admit I've never paid attention to Sanders...he plays for Mil. and that's all I knew about him. he did look impressive in that video. but what's his story? was he injured this yr.? I don't remember seeing him play against us this yr.

anyone willing to offer up his situation i'd appreciate it. how available is he? or is this wishful thinking? is he a bad seed?

Sanders has too many issues off the court to invest in him. He's a time bomb waiting to explode. Dude has shades of Sheed and Artest.

hope this helps...

While the 6-foot-11 center apologized to the Bucks for his five-game suspension, Sanders defended his use of the banned substance.

"I believe in marijuana and the medical side of it. I know what it is if I'm going to use it," Sanders said in an interview with the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel and nba.com. "I study it and I know the benefits it has. In a lot of ways we've been deprived. You can't really label it with so many other drugs that people can be addicted to and have so many negative effects on your body and your family and your relationships and impairment. This is not the same thing. The stigma is that it's illegal. I hate that. Once this becomes legal, this all will go away. But I understand for my work it's a banned substance. I will deal with the consequences and I apologize again to my fans for that."

I would like that combo, they complement each other well and sanders shouldnt be too expensive to get.

if the bucks draft embiid hes gonna be infinitely easier to acquire, I do like sanders more than asik or a lot of the other bigs on the market, but how much will it cost us to sign him is the only thing im skeptical about
