Re: Nick Horvath???
I think I remember him. Fairly typical big slow white guy if I remember correctly.

Re: Nick Horvath???
He played awsome last summer league with us in the first game.... Then got hurt out of nowhere... Sprained his ankle tieing his shoe or something... I mean he played good, but so did Skita.

I only recall him back in his high school years and then first year at Duke, but not ever since.

Re: Nick Horvath???
My brother's roommate when he was a freshman was friends with Horvath. That's pretty much all I got on him.

Re: Nick Horvath???
Soooo....The consensus is that he's big, slow, white, unco-ordinated, unmemorable and has at least one friend. Ummmm.....Is that what the Wolves are looking for? He doesn't sound like the help Garnett needs.

Aw, now that's just mean!  How could anybody not like Mad Dog? Big ol' happy friendly funny puppy dog! I'm sure he's popular as hell.
....He just doesn't play basketball very well.....

Re: Nick Horvath???
Say what you will about Mad Dog's ability to play basketball, but it is far, far, far better than his ability to dance.
... Of course, his ability to flap his arms and fly to the moon is also better than his ability to dance, so perhaps that isn't saying very much.

Re: Nick Horvath???
hes played down in the Australian league for the past few years but last year like broke his leg or something and missed all but 3 games, works well inside uses his feet well and has decent moves can score and rebound but isnt very quick. in his healthy season went 20ppg and 11rpg on 54% shooting
IMO - he is mark madsen with more offense and a bit better rebounding skills

Thanks for a realistic look at Horvath. That's a pretty damning assessment.
Let the Aussies keep him.
