I disagree. Both Fizer and Bagaric have been replaced. Blount was not signed to play 10 minutes per game. When Fizer and Bags were on the floor together last year our interior defense and rebounding suffered greatly. Blount should make a positive difference in those two areas. Both Fizer and Bags are now eminently available for trades.Originally posted by Mikedc
I'd guess that either Blount or Tyson get more minutes at center.
At this point, I'm guessing our frontcourt rotation is something like:
Center - Curry 30, Chandler 18
Power Forward - Chandler 12, Fizer 26, Blount 10
First, if we were looking for a guy to play heavy minutes, I'm sickened that Blount is the guy we picked. He's a one year, veteran minimum player. 10 minutes a game is kind of an "ideal", if everyone is healthy. In reality, his average mpg will be higher, given that he'll play more when other guys are hurt.Originally posted by HJHJR

Blount.
Whoopie...
Guess we should all get in line now and purchase those playoff tickets early.
Simpkins or Jud Buechler could be next.
Blount = very nice pickup at the price. At least Bill will have the option to play a vet who can play some D and board instead of all of the kids. Blount can play next to Chandler or Curry and form a decent sized front court.Originally posted by HJHJR

Thanks HJ as always. Blount is a very good fit for us. Even though it was a one year contract acquisition, I do think ir is a matter of time until Fizer is moved. I wish him him well and I have been a supporter of his. I am not as sure about Bagaric being moved. He is young enough, big enough and cheap enough that we can put him at the end of the bench and wait on him. He is very young and centers take a long time to develop and even back up centers have major worth in the NBA. historically centers reach their peak close to 30. I am not big on just dumping him. Time will tell.
