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. |
True, also the old Pistons had Edwards, Lambier, Rodman, Sally and Mahorn ( Mahorn up to 1990 ).
But Corliss played some SF as well as some of the old Pistons - Rodman I think.
Flip has made it clear that he will not play any of our bigs at small forward.
See the pattern. Front court depth = championship. I know the league has went small and plays a different style but you still need front court depth to dish out some fouls. Otherwise we are going to see Prince or maybe Hayes this time trying to guard Tim Duncan or Kevin Garnett in a crucial playoff game.
