Probably once we trim up the roster and figure out what we are doign with Pruitt and wallace we probably will sign a 3rd center. Kandi could be it.

I really hope so, that we waived Wallace and Pruitt and sign with Kandiman, I will repeat myself, but I'm saying one more time that Scott Pollard can't do anything and I don't know for waht reason Ainge sign with him, now we must waived Wallace and maybe Pruitt and sign with this guy

Ain't gonna happen. Only way that happens is if one of them looks awful in pre-season, or Perkiins gets hurt.

Wherver they looks in preseason Kandiman is 2 times better thatn them, so we must waived them out as soon as we can

I don't see Manuel making the team and since his contract is not guaranteed he is the most likely to be cut. Danny is going to keep Pruitt and Davis. The only other possibility of a cut would be Wallace but I think Danny is going to keep him to groom him to take over for Posey after his contract.
We need a veteran PG more than we need a center but we could use both. My ideal moves would be to trade Scal for Tyrone Lue (works in the trade checker) and then sign Kandi for the veteran minimum. We need a PG and Lue is best friends with KG and Atlanta has too many PGs. They also could really use a glue guy who does the little things on their team.

I think for all intents and purposes Powe and Davis would be better centers than Kandi. They want it more

what center can be Davis, man this guy is 6,6 and he is 290lbs. that's laughable I mean man how good he can be, I really don't know how this meatball is moving. He don't walk he roll. This guy can play only on the summer league in Vegas against the the other kids, there are no stars in there, tell me how you see him against Amare, or Duncan. I will bet with anybody that in 1 on 1 game Kandiman will personally gonna whoop his !!!GREENIAC!!! to this meatball.

Well the thing about Kandi is that I don't think he ever sweated in his life and he's indifferent to whether his man makes or misses his shot. I think about once or maybe twice a year he plays hard for no real reason. Just cause. I think he's perfectly content to just earn a million bucks to sit the bench.

All of the reports I have seen have Davis at 6'8 or 6'9.
It seems that you really dislike youth.
Waive Pruitt and Wallace and sign Olowakandi.
No one thinks that Davis/Powe or even Wallace will be a Mutumbo or a Olajuwon, we just need them as high energy types to get rebounds and create space under hoop.
If we were playing the Suns/Spurs I would expect KG to guard Amare/Duncan and Davis/Powe to guard Diaw/Elson or whoever.
Kandi was the #1 pick in the 1998 (or whatever) draft, the only thing he has proved is that he was a major bust and the Clippers probably should have taken Pierce or Dirk. He always looks good in the preseason, but I would rather have Glen Davis as the backup C then olowakandi.

This goes against what his official measurements are listed at the draft camp, but if you watch the video interview (the one he and Tony Allen were in last week), TA is only a few inches shorter than Big Baby. If TA is 6'4", that puts Davis at about 6'7", and I seriously think that's his height. He's not 6'9", I can tell you that. If he and Jefferson stand next to one another, Davis is not as tall as Big Al.
But I like Big Baby and I'll be pulling for him to come through.
I also think Pruitt will be with the team. If Ainge is going to cut anyone to make more room for free agent signing, I think the person to be cut is Brandon Wallace. But like FL said, he may be a piece for the future, so if at all possible, if Ainge can hold onto him, he'll do it. But if a solid big man is out there, who could help us right now, I'm sure keeping Wallace won't be an option.

No one is planning on Davis or Powe going up against the other team's top center. You're asking whether either or both of them can be a physical presence for a short period, probably against the other team's backup.
Of course, one of the great NBA centers was legitimately only 6'6"----Wes Unseld.
