    we need good role players in the future, when the roxs make the championship run. los is a good role player because he is young and seems like a guys who doesnt demand the ball to much.

    While Rogers appears to be hard working and at times, incredibly talented, he cannot be relied upon due to the numerous injuries and ailments he invariably acquires. He is like one of those cartoon characters with a black cloud following him around. He has had tremendous misfortune with regards to his family and just when he gets over some sort of bronchial ailment, then he gets pink-eye.

    Los is no-playing trade bait with an expiring contract. He should have been more for us but this is a possible explanation he never plays.

    I think that he is a QUITE capable PF
    I like the MOE/KT/Los rotation
    hell I would love to supplement that with
    a nice
    DREAM/COLLIER/LOS rotations

    With los getting 10 minutes at each spot

    c - Dream/Collier/los
    PF- Moe/KT/Los

    IS NOT A BAD ROTATION!!!!!
    this is why SF is #1 on my list

    You know, Carlos Rogers has always been an engima to me.

    He looks like a great athlete, with that great wingspan and lithe body. Sometimes, he plays and makes you wonder why we don't use him more. Rogers can shoot and drive.. two rare qualities in someone his heighth.

    I think his real problem is the classic dilemna of the tweener. His game and body doesn't really fit at any one position. He's not strong and big enough to be a C or PF... yet he's not fast enough and he doesn't shoot well enough to be a SF. That's going to put him in the position of roleplayer for life... and he's always going to have trouble getting minutes above players that fit into particular positions wlel.

    I do agree that he should be getting more minutes though... he's certainly effective.

    I think the ZONE makes LOS
    more Valuable than Cato

    I prefer DREAM and LOS
    or even DREAM and COLLIER
    to DREAM AND CATO

    I think Los is a better weakside
    shot blocker than Cato [Cato too slow]
    Los on the PF is WAY better than Cato
