that said, it is important for me to point out that i'm not a big ben fan myself. i think i do appreciate what he brings but i don't think i'd want him to run the floor alongside chris and charlie. yeah, we'd have a more conventional frontcourt, but that's not an advantage in itself. i'm not as scared as some others to try something 'new'- especially considering how versatile (and young) chris and charlie happen to be. instead of putting them in a box, i'd definitely rather use their partnered talent to its fullest potential- and if that means surprising some critics and old-school minds with a new approach, so be it.

i'm just really happy with this team. i love how many different directions we can take this train. i mean, i don't want the dpoy playing for us. that's saying something.
