    With all this talks about the starters and the 6th man we might as well talk about the other side of the coin, that being the bench warmers.
    I personally think that the honors for benchwarming are going to belong to our newest rookie Collier followed by Drew(if not traded). Rogers will get some time but mostly will be a benchwarmer so is Bullard but on occations I see him comming in to teach the other rook how you do things [​IMG] as for the other rook (Langhi) I can see him starting slow (as KT did) but by the middle of the season I boldly predict the man is going to be getting just as many min. as Walt if not more. So the order of benchwarming according to me is as follows :

    1>Collier
    2>Drew
    3>Rogers
    4>Bull
    5>Langhi (at the beginning of the season)

    I would give an honorable mention to Pig but since he is still not signed I won't.
    did I forget anyone ?
    Let's see everyone's opinion on this.

    I don't see Bullard coming in too much, unless Dream is definitly on his game. Matt's a great three point shooter, no doubt, but he's the biggest (literally) liablity on defense we have, and he can't get his own shot. I think the fact that Bull saw limited action when Hakeem went down last year should be foretelling. I would play Rogers, or any other big man, before him.
