I hear ya Derek but at the same time u dont have to have an allstar center to win in the NBA, you just need smart basketball players. Chicago has gotten along well with Noah who is not an Allstar but he plays defense and is smart. Look at Philly, and some other teams who do well with Centers who come in and know there, they rebound and make layups, block some shots, but really you need good players on the wing, its a perimeter game these days and you have to defend the perimeter also. And in my opinion, Kaman is good but overall Bogut is better and can produce more, the only issue is that he is hurt so right now it makes no sense, but we will see how this goes. Miami Center is horrible yet they are able to win games, yeah i know they have two of the best players in the league but still, thats why you need good wing players. we have Klay but we lost monta who can bring alot more to the team now, klay is young and still has alot of gowth, i didnt like the trade cuz it makes us fans have to wait out another year instead of winning now. thats what we have been doing the last how ever many years

reserve small fowards are a dime a dozen, quality centers are not.

Rush is a good player, but trading him for a starting center capable of averaging doubles and allowing the team to keep Monta and Udoh is a no brainer.

Addition by substraction is a proven loser.

Well I beg to differ. Rush is a keeper, we just have to use him right, and we actually are bigger in a sense, on the wing we are bigger, Jefferson, Klay, Rush, Wright, McGuire,so we are bigger there. I would also like to see us draft a real point guard in the draft too! Like Damian Lillard from Weber State, he is NBA ready now and can truly play point guard,but we do need to get another Big in the draft if we arent going to let Tyler play. Once again its about using guys strengths, and if we can do that, we can start winning even thru these last games of the season. lets see how Coach Jackson does! We may need to let Tyler touch the ball a little more and get that experience in the post.

More small ball. Of course Riley’s happy, he’s but together a smal team incapable of competing at a top level. Teams like this current roster all Larry Riley specials,

I read yesterday where that Riley idiot passed on a Kamen for Rush deal. Had he dealt for Kamen and kept Monta and Udoh the dubs would have made the playoff easily and made alittle noise.

Now this seasons blown and next year will only be marginally better if at all, due to the fact slow unatheletic teams never fare well in the western conf.

Hopefully Klay is ready to carry us scoring wise!

Jefferson was a little rusty tonight but played great defense for us. David Lee doesnt want to play defense period.

Man this trade is still to be assessed. No happy about it but still want to see how it goes next season. The problem still remains, D Lee and Curry can’t defend very well! Curry is not the PG of the future to me, but is a great player, need to play more off the ball. Hope Bogut is ready to go.

You armchair GM’s are so funny… Knee-jerking to every article on the net, thinking you know more about trades and personnel than NBA GM’s and scouts.

Ha! You know-it-alls need to get a life.

I guess the front office thinks Curry’s a HOF too as they passed up All-Star PGs in CP3 and Rondo.
