    Seattle wants to make Booth their starting center according to NBA.com. Besides for his shot against the Jazz, his contrbutions were very slim. His season averages were 5.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocked shots a game. He only played in 55 games. I think he has potential but he isn't good enough to start. Unlees they re-up McCoy they have a problem at Center maybe worse than the Rockets do.

    Is vaids_13 your brother? You guys like old news..

    Oh yeah, The Wizards got Kwame Brown with the first pick. If they can get a good bench, I think they will be good :)

    Didn't the Booth deal just clear the "offer sheet stage" in the last few days?

    Regardless; I think it's sound to note that Booth scored his 5.3 Ppg laced with 4.5 boards and 2.02 bpg in just 17 minutes per game (that's 5.7 blocks per 48 minutes and would have led the league in bp48minutes had he played enough games to qualify)

    Just because last year was Booth's first in the league, and hence his opportunities were less, doesn't mean he shouldn't be considered a starter after a strong showing!
