Think we fill that spot? Big Ben is a possibility. Would love his influence on Drummond. Thoughts?

Umbra would be a good fit.

On a serious note, bring back Big Ben. Although we have an absolutely atrocious 2-3 rotation. Probably the worse in the league in terms of production. Perhaps we're not done trading.

Bring back Ben, because with a Calderon/Knight back-court we need Drummond starting, meaning Monroe at the four. So we need a back-up center and Kratsov is a garbage minute guy at best.

Singler|Jerebko|Maggette/Middleton
Monroe|Maxiell|Villnueva
Drummond|Wallace|Kratvsov

With Coreys large expiring contract, lets keep the spot open in case a 1 for 2 trade becomes possible.

I say bring T Will back. we need his defense, we've been getting lit up way too often.

why not, he knows Franks system, is familiar with the team after his preseason stint and he can play defense. im tired of watching the team get lit up by SGs on a nightly basis. im not saying start him and sign him to a long term deal but I wouldnt mind having him until we can get someone better in the offseason. I think he'd help the team a lot more than Big Ben and his 40 year old creaky knees. if we need to add a backup center we can always cut Bynum, he shouldnt have a role on the team any longer anyways.

This... plus I don't want any more minutes taken from the youth... at some point in time we need to see if Kravs is worth his 3 year deal.

Calderon to teach Knight, Big Ben to teach Andre and Slava, would be nice.

idk if Oden could ever stay healthy, he has no legs. Big Ben makes the most sense. i hope we could trade magette away, with all these minutes available i'm scared i'm going to see his garbage on the court again

Its gotta be Big Ben. Then we can move Drummond into the starting lineup

Calderon/Bynum
Knight/Stuckey
Singler/CV
Monroe/Maxiell
Drummond/Wallace

I think CV still deserves a spot in the rotation over Jerebko, even if Ben returns. I'd like to see him at backup SF, which I think is his natural position anyways. Then he wouldn't have to rebound and can just score. Jerebko does absolutely nothing and we aren't going anywhere if he's going to be in the rotation again.

is it wierd that i'd rather have Big Ben Start games and let Dre come on with the second unit, and eventually through out the game rotate the starters in with Dre?
