I do like Dyess at his old 20-25 MPG. More if he is playing well and less if he is shooting those 15' bricks and getting beat on the defensive end. We need Sheed for as much as he can play and Maxiel's play demands more mins.

For one game we saw the Amir/Samb combo and I liked what I saw. Kind of knew that would be the only time we would see that but it would be nice if there was some way to get both Samb and Amir in there. Maybe playing Amir some at SF but thats not going to happen.
Indeed, there is no reason at all not to use a five man rotation at our two big spots.

Campbell, Okur, Corliss, Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace.

Ever hear of those five? EC started out as our starting center in 2004. Later, Memo was our starting center during a 13 game win streak. For the playoffs, none of Corliss, Memo, or Campbell played a whole lot really, but all three played, and were very prepared to play.

Oh, yes, Darko was a rookie on that team. Yes, there was even time for him to play here and there. Coach's who say there is no room for a player are simply into making excuses.
