Ah man, we both know the guy Peter Cornell wont be able to really hang in there. Although if I'm wrong then I will tell everyone in the thread that Kelvin Cato is the greatest back up center of all time.
These pre-season threads can really be prophetic sometimes. It's interesting to look back at our thoughts then and now. I hope Mo-T comes back strong and Eddie gets his head together but it's obvious that it's not a totally ridiculous possibility that Yoa and Cato can play together.
I understand that there are set backs by starting Cato at the 4 but you guys must remember our ALTERNATIVE. Dont you think it is easy to sag off of Eddie (Mr. Career 38% fg shooter and Mr. Wanna be Larry Bird) camping out at the 3 point line? If anything, Cato will actually HELP Yao on offense since he plays so close to the basket taht players cant leave him opened because it will be a dunk. Also, his offensive rebounding skills will require defenders to play a bit more honest as well. I would agree with you IF we had a Rasheed Wallace type at PF as an alternative but Eddie Griffen is no where near that level.
