Joel Anthony is probably the backup center behind Bosh. I can't see anybody else getting minutes there on a regular basis.
Haslem isn't a center. He's almost exclusively a power forward. He's also easily the best PF on either bench. Either Haslem will start at PF or Lewis will.
Haslem is for sure not easily the best 4 on either bench, he was terrible last year (6 and 6 on 45% shooting). Jamison is easily a better player and fit then Haslem and the same can be said about Jordan Hill if you want to consider him a 4.Jodie Meeks is nowhere close to Ray Allen as a player.
If you want to compare Meeks to the Ray Allen of 4 years ago then yes. But this is a Ray Allen who is playing on sketchy ankles and got sent to the bench in favor of Avery Bradley last year. Meeks is also an underrated defender so I wouldn't expect to see Ray light up Meeks.
You're right. Let's compare the Haslem who had a terrible year last season and not the one who has been consistent every other year of his career. And teams I guess were lining up to sign Jodie Meeks. Oh wait, the veteran's minimum? Yeah ok, he's clearly better than a guy like Ray Allen who was offered 2 years 12 million for a reason. That's not an unbiased opinion or anything...
If we're gonna use Haslem from three years ago, can we compare Kobe and Lebron by using Kobe of 3 years ago too? Haslem hasn't played well in three years dude. He had a **** year last year, and he was out the entire year the year before. He's on the major decline. Three years is a long time. Blake was good three years ago too.
