Why Don Nelson refuses to run extended minutes with Ronny and Andris out there at the same time is beyond be, but attempting to understand how nellie thinks, im guessing that well have aboslutely no legit big behind our starters probably has something to do with it. Who cares at this point. I look at Turiaf's game and i think it complements AB's game and our starting needs perfectly. Nice outside 15 foot jumper, dominating shot blocker, decent rebounder when not cleaning up other shotty difense. 

This lineup has the potential to DOMINATE other mediocre teams and compete with the best IMO: monta, jamal (or bukie), SJax, Turiaf, and beans. Blocking, scoring, assists, and team deafense. cant vouch for anyones one on one D but hey, its a start. That lineup when healthy IS a playoff team and maybe a second round playoff team if monta ever comes back to form. Something is still needed here namely a quality backup big with meat on his bones that likes to get dirty.

All this trade talk gets kind of redundant reading this site everyday and now im more interested in manipulating the things we can control rather than waiting for a pau gasol or ron ron trade. Amare, who would complete my dream sheet would complement beans and ronny perfectly but just isnt realistic and i hope i am wrong.

Please Nelson, go for broke and start em anyway. this team is not half as bad as our record might indicate and one tweak (wing for a big) and the start of a new season, we will be right!!! Im wondering what other fans think about ronny and beans starting together with maggette, marco or watson, and a big (to be named later via trade or free agency) assuming that bukie, jamal, and or morrow will be the cost of a big..
