... and Hilton Armstrong turned into the team's top front court options, through no doings of their own. But now, as fans and analysts have taken a step back from the season, those explanations will start to fade into obscurity. The once clear cut explanations (injuries, regression, lack of depth) will evolve into far vaguer terms. The team simply lost its spark, its attitude. How do they get that winning fire back? By signing somebody who was last seen when the team still had that grit and fortitude. ...
Get to Know Your Prospect Better: Jeff Adrien
Bullets Forever —
... in his career?
You know right away what you're going to get from Adrien, the only x-factor is how he'll do against taller NBA opponnents. He'll give you a good amount of rebounds, a few points and some solid minutes off the bench. That's it. I do not think his size will be that big of an impediment if only because he is so strong and physical.
How does Adrien compare with famous UConn big men like Emeka Okafor, Josh Boone, Charlie Villanueva, Hilton Armstrong, and Donyell Marshall?

(Editor's Note: this is actually pretty decent idea from Trey - hopefully he did his homework and it works in the trade checker... - G17) I know its just speculation, but it's not unreasonable. I'm basing this off of rumors that Miller may go to portland and new orleans expressing interest in big baby. here it goes:

... , only to have the move rescended shortly thereafter when Chandler failed his physical. In the off-season he was again traded, this time successfully, to Charlotte for C/PF Emoke Okafor. Okafor, like Chandler is somewhat limited on offense, but a solid rebounder and defender. Okafor has also been hit by the injury bug in the past. Still, even moderate health from Okafor will be an improvement over the half season the Hornets were forced to make due with Hilton Armstrong, ...

Preview: Kings at Hornets
Sactown Royalty —
... The Kings lack of frontcourt depth is rivaled by the Hornets, who bring Songalia and Hilton Armstrong off the bench. Our best hope is that Okafor and West, the untalented defenders that they are, resort to a hack-a-Sean-May defense early and often. ...

So either something is up and the team simply likes Hilton Armstrong over him or his neck is in very poor condition. Armstrong did have a strong showing against the Clippers, so I'd expect Marks' neck to be "sore" for at least a couple more games. ...
