Re: Need big man
Durant probably won't be a PF... SF most likely... I guess staying at SG is an outside possibility.
For now Collison, WIlcox, and Petro seems to be our main rotation with Green shifting over sometimes and then Sene, Swift, White, Joe Smith pitching in some as well.
I'd like to see how this season goes in the post, but yeah, obviously a big time post player in the draft is what just about every team dreams of.

Re: Need big man
So Green who is not a powerforward but a small forward then needs to be moved ...
We had a chance on Al Horford.... but we decided to let our small forward go and not grab a big man ...
big men in draft that take you to championships are rare... thus the reason for High payout
Still think Westbrook was the clear choice over Love...
We just need a BIGMAN

Re: Need big man
I hear ya sonic-ben... the guys that have traditionally brought championships via the draft have been bigs.
Westbrook over Love every time. Hopefully Westbrook over everyone behind him, but that remains to be seen.

Durant will not be a big man, he is at best a SF.

Re: Need big man
Sonics-ben, if that's your starting 2010 lineup then prepare for an even worse season than this one. There's so much inexperience with Ibaka and Thabeet it's not funny. Regardless of their height they would get torn to shreds. Gasol and Bynum, Shaq(even though he is going downhill) and Stoudamire, Bosh and O'neal, Brand and Dalembert, Garnett and Perkins, Kaman and Camby, Lewis and Howard, just to name a few.
You need to have some veteran toughness. That starting five may be athletic but they would get eaten alive by wily vets that know how to win. At some point Presti has to bring some highend experience onto the roster and spend the cap space if they're serious about winning.

Well Blake is already getting talked about as the #1 pick next draft. He is a hometown favorite and a great player. I could see us getting him like THAT. He would be an NBA ready player that would contribute immediately.

long time downtown.....
They may get beaten down .... But if the team is losing... at least the younger players Get experience... would we need a quality vertern .. Yes is that Wilcox.. No
Maybe Wallace... champion experience ... nows how to win ... not afraid to open mouth
dumar... values him thou maybe after contract is over
Love losing and having vertern using a lot of min for leadership to lose... why

Durant will not be a big. He will be like Danny Granger, 6'9 G-F who can shoot the 3, 1 stl, 1 blk, 20ppg, 5+ rpg
