    You can’t thumb your nose at league mandated quota and get away with it. There are limits.

    We’re going to see Maxi I’m convinced at some point and yeah he’s a big wide body with skills we need.

    1) He'll be the best shooting big who can play the 5 at spurts
    2) He can't be worse than Alex Len
    3) He has no trade value right now. Perhaps a few good games could boost it up.
    4) He is familiar with Luka's game

    I'm not expecting much but Lakers could use the extra body

    All of this. The thought of going into the playoffs with only one functional big in Jax was concerning to me.

    The sad thing is, if Kleber can come pack and play 20 mins a game, that’s probably the difference between the WCF and a 1st round exit.

    That’s how desperate we are for another rotation player, especially one that’s a big.

    He actually got some burn… he tried out there. I don’t mind him as a 3rd stringer.

    Fought in the middle, got us a board, drew a foul and missed a shot. More than what Len or Hayes would have given.

    The fact that first time he and his teammates were on the court together was in this game and that he was STILL our best available big should give Rob all the info he needs about what priority #1 has to be this summer.

    Is there a 24 yo Maxi Klieber around? But seriously, I never thought Klieber was a big dude when he was with Dallas but with all the small ball he looked huge out there.

    He would be ideal for next year lol
