Assuming he could take Nader's roster spot...

With all the injuries, how much would he be playing and what role would he have in these matchups?  :D

he'd be our starting center, playing about 25 minutes a game, i remember he played pretty well in KG's absence during 2009

I think with today's play style, his shooting will come to be pretty effective in our lineup

He wouldn't get into any games unless Morris started to fatigue or got injured.  Well, I guess maybe he could steal a couple of Monroe minutes in certain matchups, strictly for defense.

He should be a stretch PF, which is what we should've been playing him constantly but rarely seemed to do so.

Scal would replace Semi in the rotation. Play around the same minutes.

"Prime" Scalabrine?  I think he's in his prime now.

Wearing a suit.  Ha ha.

In all seriousness, Scal would be a much better fit for the style of play in 2018 then he was in 2008.  Still at best a role player, but I absolutely could see him playing a solid 15-20 minutes off the bench, providing hustle plays, nuisance defense, and hitting the occasional 3.

That’s what I was thinking as well.

Scal would not play.  Not quick enough to defend switches.

I really do not recall Scal much during his Nets days, or that first BOS year. I imagine that was prime Scal as far as quickness/overall play.

He definitely wasn't quick enough by 2009-2010.

He looked slower last year in the Big 3 league, which he’ll be playing in next month! Live games on FS1 lol
