Is it time for Hakim Warrick to establish himself?

Is the power forward spot automatically given to Hakim Warrick?
In the 2006-2007 season he showed what he is capable of but makes me wonder if he can be consistent.

Your thoughts? IMOs?

Yup - looks like that's the case. Make or break time for Mr. Warrick. Unfortunately our defense just went from worst in the league, to even worse than the worst in the league.

So then it would be a good idea to pick up Warrick for fantasy?

Understood but management appears to have accepted that it is time to rebuild and move on from the "Gasol" era. This has to be Rudy Gay's team now especially after what he's done this season. Now with Warrick looking to be the starting PF, he's going to run with this and hopefully won't let it go. Warrick has got to take this as, "This is my opportunity" knowing Gasol is no longer lurking in the shadows. With the young gun movement, hopefully this makes the Grizzlies a more athletic, versatile and competitive team in the coming years.

Warrick better takes this as his last chance.

you guys don't think they'll play small ball like they always did when Gasol or Darko was injured? I though their coach always wanted to play small ball anyways.....

Meaning starting 5:

1- Conley/Lowry
2- JCN
3- Miller
4- Gay
5- Darko

No??
