We need a 3rd team Center for 15th man 

Post#1 » by your_dallas_mavericks » Thu Aug 21, 2008 1:03 pm

We have 14 men on the roster:
Kidd
Terry
Barea
Stack
Jones
Green
Howard
George
Wright
Dirk
Bass
Singleton
Damp
Diop
so who makes 15?

It shouldn't be someone flashy, it just should be someone who can play (unlike Magloire)...
If we could just close games with Luka, Kyrie, Green, Maxi, and Wood that'd be great...

Still have Dirk who can play 3rd string center. And if Dirk, Damp and Diop are all injured, George and Bass can spell some minutes at C.

I agree with JES12 on this. We don't really need a 3rd team center. That's Bass, then Dirk. If we need to go deeper than that, we're screwed anyway.

We need to clear out some of the clutter at the swing position and figure out who the 3rd guard is to go with Kidd and Terry. Terry s/b the 1st backup for either position. Plenty of fill-ins available at the sg/sf spot, but somebody needs to be starting in front of JET. Since Kidd can't shoot or score any more, we've gotta have a scoring sg that's big enough to at least play decent defense.

Man, if one of the no-name swing players on this team doesn't emerge, we're in deep sh ... trouble.
