This team already had its share of that attitude - and now thats its over and done with I see no reason to bring it back. All we need is a center or a dominant PF. I would prefer a center keeping cr8zy eyes as the PF because I think (I cant believe I am saying this) that he fits the team well. If only Patrick were young again..this team would be amazing.
Why a PF? I think we're ok there. Between Kurt and Sweets, we're
covered more than adequately.
A center, yes. Even tho Nazr is holding his own lately,
he's going to get GROSSLY outmatched when he plays against
any real centers out there, esp, come playoff time.
And we need to do something about the 3-spot. TT sucks. And
unless Ariza is up to taking the role, or Wilkens is happy with
inserting Houston in there, its our second weakest position.
Hence this discussion about Carter.
While I'm not sure what I'd be willing to give up to get him,
I do think this guy is going to come back once he gets out of
Toronto. He's been stuck out in Siberia for TOO long, and just
wants out. And the thing about dunking, that will last only
until he gets traded. Its like he's twisting management's arm
gently. I.e., I'll score because that's what I'm paid to do,
but I'm not going to entertain the fans more than I have to.
