Jeff Foster as a possible backup PF/C?

The Dallas Morning News is reporting that the Mavs are planning to pursue the 6'11" defensive grinder who has spent his entire career playing for the Pacers and a few of those years under Rick Carlisle.

Foster, who turns 35 in January, averaged 3.3 points and 6.3 rebounds with the Pacers last season.

I think this would be a great pick up on our part in acquiring a hard-nosed defensive minded big that could help in the likely departure of Tyson Chandler by playing behind Dirk or grabbing some rebounds at center.

What are your thoughts fellow Moneyballaz?
