What's the take among Sonics fans about Swift - still regarded as a prospect? ever likely to be healthy enough to play? Thanks for any info.

We'll see. He's supposed to be finally healthy and see some considerable minutes in the second half. From what we know of him, he's a big, active body who can block shots and rebound pretty effectively. Strong down low, pretty agile for a seven footer, and he flashed the beginnings of a jumpshot in the last game he played against Chicago before the break. We all pull for him on this board, for various reasons, and most of us think that, if he ever stays healthy, he'll be at least a solid rotation player.

I think he can be a solid NBA centre, before the injury he really looked like he was going to break out so the knee injury couldn't have came at a worse time really. He has missed so much time now because of it and we may have already seen his best which is very unfortunate.
If Seattle is willing to change this line up around him and trade players away to extend his minutes in the final stages of the season it shows how highly they think of him. I'm still a believer.

PJ stated on Monday that he wouldn't make this lineup change before Thursday's or Friday's game.
So it looks like Thomas just got his final game with us(there's been a report that the fans showed him quite some love last night) and PJ's fully expecting not having him around for those final 30 games.
