    The only problem when we go small with our "bigs" is that they won't be allowed to play as rough, which we need to do, with the guy they're playing as others have been able to do with Yao.

    Brooks
    Artest
    Shane
    Landry
    Scola

    but the problem is .. Kobe will go insane in the paint because we wont have 7 footers inside..

    also ... I think we would play Barry more than Wafer..

    Seriously, can we get a look at Dorsey now? What else is it going to take??? I know this guy struggles offensively except for dunks, but he really is similar to Ben Wallace. In college, he played game-changing defense, dunked on chumps, and brought energy and fire. Let's give him a shot.

    Think it'll be

    Landry
    Scola
    Battier
    Artest
    Brooks

    but I'd preferrer

    Landry
    Scola
    Battier
    Artest
    Lowry

    then we need our energy scorers, brooks and wafer to give us some points.
    then you have chuck hayes backing up for center

    I think we'll see brent berry play.

    3 potential hall of famers...chillin on our sidelines. Whats funny, take away the two best players on any other contender, we are way better off then them:

    lakers: kobe and pau (they would be a lottery team)
    cavs: lebron-just stop there haha.
    celtics: look how much they struggle without garnett, take away pierce? no way they win a game in the playoffs
    magic: take away dwight and turg. they will be decent, not a playoff team
    spurs: with out tim duncan and tony parker, they are nothing.

    etc.


    So look at the bright side, man we have good depth

    Exactly what I was thinking.

    Hell we aren't gonna get rebounds anyways might as well get those little guys to run run run.

    LOL give me a break. Chuck Hayes (6 inches shorter) made him airball an 8 foot hook.

    Bynum is overrated as hell, he has Pau and Kobe and has open lanes and still can't do s**t.

    Bynum isn't gonna play, if anyone is gonna kill us its Pau.

    I know not what the starting lineup is without Yao, but i know what's the starting lineup next year though: It'll be

    PG Shawn Bradley
    SG George Meureeson
    SF Kareem Abdul Jubar
    PF Dikembe Motumbo
    C Yao Ming

    Be prepare to see a lot of bone cracking.
