Why is it our SF position is an issue for this team every stinkin' year since BK went down?
We're always either weak there or playing someone out of position to fill the hole.
We either end up playing a PF there: see Anthony Mason, X-Man, Charles Smith (God I hated him), LJ;
or a SG: Latrell, Q;
or a bum that never showed up: TT.
I guess LJ came closest out of that bunch.
Ironically, JRose might be the first true SF we've had in like 20 years, only he's too old
to make an impact. Woods might have been the goods, but looks like we've lost him.
Let's see if JJ2 can break the curse and show up with the right tools to be a real SF.
But I'm not holding my breath.

I loved LJ but felt like I was alone in that line of thinking. A lot of Mason fans felt that LJ wasn't as tough as Mase but I felt otherwise. He brought a lot to the table and was much better with the ball than Mason was.

But yes, we are cursed at the 3 spot and now it seems to have trickled over to the 4 and 5 spots too;( Not to mention the PG and Houston curse! DOOMED!
