Figures. I wanted him.

 

[joshstmarie]

birdman would be amazing, i think alot of people forget how good he was. i also know he used to work at majerles back when he was trying out for the suns...i guess he worked as a doorman/security for a few months. the point being i think he has some arizona connections.

Didn't want to start a new thread on this, but the Bucks just signed Ruffin. He averaged only 9.0 minutes a game in 30 games last season with the Wizzards. He averaged 0.6 ppg on 27.8% shooting.
