    Lewis is a 6'10 sg/sf/pf 19 year old. cat is 26 and i think michael is 25. I might be a little biased though because he is a hometown hero.i think that in the end lewis will be the best player. but all three will be excellent players.

    If you go back and find my old posts from the offseason, you will find I have been in Los's corner all along. I know talent when I see it, and Los has lots of it. Plus he is a smart player.

    I know it's pretty embarassing to get stuffed by KT, but it's really not the end of Lewis' career! Just look at all the skills the kid has - he has legitimate 3pt range and is as athletic as anyone could ask for! He can block shots, make steals and pass the ball, plus he's only 19. Give him 2 years and then we'll decide if he's ever going to be better than Carlos.

    Carlos is a bit of an enigma himself! On his day he can score inside, outside, he makes defensive plays and he runs the floor, but it just seems that it's not consistently there for Rogers. I'm hoping we keep him on the roster, but I'm also hoping that he turns up to play more often then not! I'd like to see him get some time at PF - he's got those long arms and speed to match up with the Rasheed's and the Garnett's and they don't use "power games" to wear down his slender body. Plus Carlos is way under-rated as a rebounder!

    Is he a smart player Bobo? I always thought one of the bad things about him was that he'd do some dumb things every now and then..

    Los had an excellent game last night. and some were saying that he should be cut. shame on anyone on who said that.

    Twice you have said the Rashard is 19 when in reality he turned 21 on Aug 8. I still think that he has a great upside though.

    sirhangover,

    Lewis would not be starting over Carlos, IMO, and as you know, Carlos is not even starting. Lewis is a young Horry. Maybe he'll learn what Horry didn't and be effective when there is not an open lane to the basket, or maybe he'll just get stuffed by KT over and over again. I love KT!!!

    And I still say we should have taken Al Harrington, anyways.

    I think Rudy had a decent draft that year
    except for Bryce Drew. Rudy could have had Dickerson,Mobley and Lewis.
