GM, Cprej welcomes everyone to the presser.
Sorry we are so late with our 95 season introductions. We been working hard to let our new players get use to playing with each other. We felt this was more important. First off we would like to thank MJ for be patient with the organization. We started off strong but have not got back to that level of playing since. We talk to him on a regular basis to get his opinion on moves we make in the offseason. We felt like we needed to make one more attempt to bring in players to get us back into the playoffs. So this offseason we brought in some guys MJ was very interested in playing with to compete. We had to give a high lotto pick to achieve these players but we feel like it will be worth it.
First we like to introduce our new starting power forward Karl "The Mailman" Malone. We feel like he will bring needed help on defense and rebounding. He also will help take pressure off of MJ to make all the shots. Karl is more then capable to take over the game if need be.
Next we like to welcome our new starting center Rik Smits. Smits brings scoring and defense to the center position, something that has been missing.
We then went out in FA and brought in some guys we feel like can contribute off the bench. They are: Doc Rivers, Todd Litchi, David Wingate, and Marcus Liberty. Doc and Todd will be primary backups at their positions. As far as David wingate and Marcus Liberty they will be in competion for the small forward opening. We really would have like to see more of Wingate in the preseason but were unable to give him more minutes.
Thanks for coming!!!!!!
