    The BBS should not forget what a disaster this offseason was.

    1. Signed Mo Taylor to Fat Contract- injured for year

    2. Signed Moochie Norris to Fat Contract- Barely a backup PG

    3. Lost Hakeem to Toronto- Leaving no interior defense

    4. Traded for Glen Rice- Does anyone think he's a big improvement over Walt Williams? (Overweight over the hill)

    5. Signed Marc Jackson- Oh well


    Few bright spots-

    1. Signed Kevin Willis- who is a much better back up than Cato

    2. E. Griffin, O. Torres, T. Morris, T. Brown - 4 rookies with potential
    especially Griffin who at 19 has the potential to star- but he is too young to pick this team up this season.

    We have one player to build around- Steve Francis no one else on this roster can carry this team at this time.

    Add to this that neither of our guards or small forwards play any defense and we are going to have a major problems stopping anyone. E. Griffin is not developed enough to be our defensive stopper, but he is more intimidating inside than Cato or Willis.

    KT plays nice defense at times but he also disappears at times.

    We have no defensive stoppers and no one to be our go to player on offense.
