    Just a couple thoughts regarding team height...

    1) Since draft night, I have wished that we got Loren Woods instead of T-Mo in the draft. Even if Morris turns out to be a better player in the long run, Woods would have been a better fit for us. Woods is soft for a 7-footer (I do think that the Nesterovic-Smith-Garnett-Woods lineup has to be the softest set of towers I have ever witnessed) but I believe that he would have been out on the court tonight if he were a Rocket, while T-Mo sat on the bench the whole night.

    2) Last night's foul trouble in the frontcourt and the fact that Griffen was the only player capable of playing Garnett at all seems to indicate that Collier should be swapped for either Torres or Brown on the IR. Collier offers us 5 more fouls to use when 2 of our frontcourt foul out. Cato may be playing better so far this year, but it is clear he will continue having foul problems.
