According to Boti Nagy, United are looking at signing Ronnie Brewer..
Puzzling consdiering they signed Goulding and blacnhfeild at the postions brewer would play, we are better off looking at a 4/5 who can rebound and block shots similar to gladness or ibekwe ?

Brewer has an Adelaide based agent. 36ers don't have the cash to sign him
What are the remaining positions yet to be signed?
Small ball lots of shooting...if they get a drive and dish PG they could be legit
They won't get a board or play But should be fun to watch

If he signs then you could say goodbye to to D Martin being a lock for defensive player of the year.

If it's true then Barlow will be sacrificing even more of his stats than last year and he certainly hasn't returned to the NBL for this!
I wonder how Blanchfield would take a bench role after developing so much in the past few seasons and moving to 'greener pastures' but he may not get 20 minutes a game!
Would Perth have any interest in him?

Not happening.
What's Boti's strike rate on the rumours this offseason?

I think Boti is at least batting .500 which isn't too bad... Not up to his usual standard though...
I don't think Barlow came back to the NBL to stink it up either, but that didn't stop him doing it last season... One of the big disappointments last season, he was, andI think he'd be counting his lucky stars to have any sort of job this coming season...
Someone of your friends told me Benno your jump shot is worse than Brewers.

I guess Brewer could probably handle himself at the 4 spot in the NBL. As others have noted, he doesn't have a good jumpshot but is very proficient at finishing around the hoop. He's 6'7 with decent strength so although being a post player isn't his natural game he should be able to handle himself in the paint as required.
Nothing on the Internet about this except botis website. This one will be a swing and a miss to keep the baseball references going
Brewer would be a good signing, but if they are looking to spend that sort of coin why not look at Jermaine Oneal or Rashard Lewis? Both of which would be a better fit to address what is needed.

If their new coach is so good then he should have someone wrapped up by now.Is Mr Invisible even in the country yet?
Brewer or Simpson? Or Conklin or Ogilvy? Holt?
Unfortunately Boti's been all over the shop rumour wise this offseason.
