Message: [QUOTE="Niastri, post: 5207258, member: 722"] We'll see... JB seemed to fall in love with the small ball center concept later in his career, and the supposed "matchup problem" always seemed to be to our detriment. I don't want to watch another season of guys like Lydon, Dolezaj, and Brown getting manhandled in the middle because they can't compete physically. Each of those guys played out of position because of injury to more qualified players, or inability to recruit somebody who actually worked at center. Give me the Christmas, Edwards and even Chukwu days at center. We have Lampkin and McLeod on the roster, it would be a waste to have them on the bench while a guy too skinny or too short are playing center. If the other team goes small, let Lampkin foul out their whole front line, or McLeod catch alley oops over undersized opponents possession after possession. [/QUOTE]
