Cortez is an awesome player no doubt but I would still prefer Balls and Hodge. Adam is playing so well as has saved the 36ers for embarrassment so many times this last season and i know he's becoming a citizen but does anyone know when the papers are coming through because if it is in the off season then yah go for it and take his import spot. As for Hodge, as stated by Steve Carfino and Andrew Gaze last sat night when they televised the game V bullets he's the first 36er to get a triple double since Rob Rose in '94! And he was .5 of a stat away from averaging a triple double over 2 games! The 36ers should put their priorities in signing both of them (long term if possible) with an NBA out clause for Hodge who's made it clear he would like another shot at the NBA.
As I started with Cortez is a real superstar in my eyes however we already have 2 imports which are just as dangerous and would both be perfect for a rebuilding franchise... as for Shane, he's not worth anyone's time to write about, as a player he was good but overly arrogant, as a commentator he knew Jack s**t and as a coach he proved how much he knew as he sucked (and even that's an understatement).
South are better off without him.
