"Kings coach Eric Musselman expects to use Taylor as a backup center behind Brad Miller."
That can't be smart...
Maybe that's for when they play Nellie's Warriors with Troy Murphy impersonating a center.
Actually I'm displeased with waiving MoT.
1) he was in a contract year, going for (probably) his last good contract. I expected he'd play hard
2) With the depth/redundancy we have, Mo would know that if he goes into black hole mode then he'd get benched
3) I thought Mo was very effective the first half of last year, taking charges, scoring in bunches some games, playing hurt, etc. I thought he was our x-factor, and certainly preferred him in the line-up rather than Malik Rose. That is, until LB jerked him around and Mo got fed up.
4) We don't have much depth with our bigs. I didn't expect anything from Jerome, and now he's crippled already this season. Malik continues to shrink, as he becomes more floorbound and the younger players are bigger. David Lee is a fave of mine, but still green, though with great energy and effort.
Can we really expect 30+ minutes from Curry and Frye?
I miss MoT already.
