We're Adding A Little Something To This Month's Sales Contest. As You All Know, First Prize Is A Cadillac El Dorado.
Loren Woods's return to the NBA for the first time in two years is an unexpected but not unwelcome surprise.

With Iranian team Mahram this summer, Woods won the Asian Club Championships, averaging 12.3 rebounds and an undisclosed number of points per game. (Jordanian great Jack Rebel Slims led the tournament with 24.6ppg.) He's the same player he always was; a nimble if slender 7'1 rebounder and shotblocker who is very inconsistent and not very good at scoring, but who likes to try to do so anyway.
