    boki is a lil versatile too.. we can put him in the small forward or the 2 guard. he can rotate in our whacked-out guard rotation and look at this rotation..

    Starting Line-up:
    FRANCIS
    MOBLEY
    POSEY

    Secondary:
    MOOCH
    BOKI
    RICE

    ALTERNATIVES:
    (IF YOU WANT SLASHING QUICK OFFENSE, THIS LINEUP WILL DO)
    FRANCIS
    BOKI
    POSEY

    (IF WE HAVE A SMALLER OPPONENTS ON D)
    [THIS IS A FREAKIN FAST RUNNING OFFENSE]
    FRANCIS
    MOBLEY
    BOKI
    POSEY

    (ANOTHER FAST PLAY THAT HAS PERIMETER PLAY)
    MOBLEY
    BOKI
    POSEY/RICE

    Like what other people say, BOSTIAN NACHBAR needs to play to show us how much he is worth the 16th pick. He needs to show why the ROX picked him in the first place, i mean 6 picks after the lottery picks, we saw something in BOKI that made him our second first round pick after YAO. I feel that he will make an important contribution to this ROX team IF AND ONLY IF Rudy plays him. Like other euro players we have seen in this league, they all have been either bench warmers, role players or just plain superstar stuff (like da DIRK) If we play BOKI, i can see more consistency out of BOKI bcuz of his professional experience back in euro. I see him and TMO competing for minutes off the bench and maybe even starting for matchup wise. BOKI= potential important 6th-7th man (role player)

    If that's all we can get then we're better off keeping Boki. None of those players, with the exception of maybe Dixon, can help the team with it's biggest weakness, outside shooting.

    I think he will get a limited role next year like T-Mo coming off the bench at the most.His lack of defense will restrict his minutes. I hope that he shows up in camp fully fit.

    For those of you wondering what Boki's role may be next season, you may be interested (or maybe not) in what Doc Rocket had to say in the following thread. I probably should've closed one of these threads since they seem to be evolving into the same discussion, but... :

    Hopefully Boki isn't another Dave Jamerson, Steve Harris, and whoever that guy is who was called Rubber Band Man. These were all "can't miss" first-rounders.
