    That is an impressive stat line! Nice job Patrick!

      Maybe Minnesota would make sense for him? That'd be a front court of Al Jefferson, POB, and Ryan Gomes...
      Here's the deal, Wyoming for football, Bradley for basketball.

        HOUSTON. Yao Ming is out for the season and Dikembe Mutombo is 41.

          In the 3 games since Patrick has been reassigned:

            Even though it's the D league, those are some pretty sick numbers... I suggested Minnesota because he's a Midwestern kid who went to high school in the state (e.g., the Lebron/Ohio factor), but there are probably 25 teams in the NBA who could use a promising 7-footer... Houston would make sense in the short term if he wants to be a backup, though he'd be stuck behind Yao in the rotation for years to come.. In Minnesota he'd get floor time, he'd be able to focus on defensive responsibilities, and he'd probably get a lot of open looks when Jefferson gets doubled up. (I'm not a T-wolves fan, just thinking in terms of what would be good for POB).

            Maybe the Celtics, playing next to KG, rotating in and out with Perkins, and letting Glen Davis play the 4? Might be a way to get another ring to go with the Sweet 16 rock.

              Another game, and another good performance by Patrick.

              The Bakersfield Jam won Saturday, 109-108 over the Utah Flash.
              POB had 12 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 blocks.

                It's great to see that Pat is doing well, I hope he keeps it up, NBA teams with sense and a smart coach will surley take notice. I'd love to see him in a Bulls uniform.

                  Me too, 06. It's all selfish, but would love to watch POB on the Bulls. I do think he'd be a much better fit than Aaron Gray.

                    Thursday's box score.

                    What does Patrick have to do? Also they've won 3 in a row to move to 10 - 34. He's making a difference.

                      He needs to not be on a team that runs an offense like Don Nelson. Luckily he's a free agent after this year. I don't understand why no one picked him up in a trade though. I can't imagine the Warriors were asking too much for him, and if Aaron Gray is getting PT for the Bulls, wouldn't OB be a nice upgrade with significantly more upside?

                        He would be best to play for a team like San Antonio coming off the bench with TD playing the 4. San Antonio runs their O through their bigs and POB then can learn from one of the best. POB is not ready to start in the NBA just yet! There's a huge difference between the D league and the NBA.

                        Other teams that would be good for him but it will depend on cap space:
                        Detroit
                        Celtics
                        Memphis
                        Seattle
                        Dallas
                        Heat

                          I agree completely. Nelson always has these quotes about OB needing to be more consistent, but with their roster and the way Nelson wants to play, for OB to get playing time he would have to be close to All-star caliber since he'd hurt their style of play otherwise.

                            Patrick continues his great play with the Bakersfield Jam of the NBDL.
                            He had 19 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks to help lead the Jam to another win.

                              Maybe POB will end up in Portland after Greg Oden ruins his knees.
