Do we really want this guy on the Nuggets?...

Only Ruben "The Babysitter Raper" Patterson could get a technical foul in a preseason game, thus sending last night's game into overtime. But hey, at least the Nuggets beat the Jazz, right?

But even if he does, will he get much game time? Iverson, Anthony, Smith, Klieza will eat up most of the minutes at 2 & 3. Balkman would probably be ahead of him at the 3 too. And maybe even Jones at SG, seeing as he has been starting preseason games.

I would normally agree with this statement, but when the human being factor affects the outcome of the game, then we have a problem. I can't see any way that this guy makes the team after that incident vs. the Jazz.

STIFF #3: Ruben Patterson
-After yelling at Karl in a playoff series, has the audacity to return to Denver and then nearly lose a game for the team for yelling at the referees.

Meh. Ruben is a headcase on the court, but lots of useful players are that way.
If we could somehow blind ourselves to his non-basketball activities, I think he brings many more positives on-court than negatives.
I watched quite a few games when he was on Milwaukee the year before last, and the guy was really bringing it on a consistent basis on both ends of the floor. If age has been reasonably kind to him, (he's 33yo now), I think he can be a contributor on a winning team.

Essentially a free pick-up, so even if he can't make a real come-back, no money spent. And not a rapist.
