If Earl Watson could block shots, I would be first in line for him.
If Damien Wilkins was 7 feet tall I would be first in line for him.
Talk in the paper today about maybe sending Swift to the NDBL is about 2 months late for this season, and what is illin' the Sonics.
Point is, if you can't contain the wing players drive into the paint then you have to plan to block, disrupt that eventuality. I was hopeful that over the summer the sunny stories of Swift working out with Jack Sikma would produce a player that could play the 15 minutes, 6 fouls, 5 points, 4 rebounds that was the now suspended New York Knick Jerome James.
Petro should start every game and get 5 fouls before he's pulled. Swift should join him in February for 5 more fouls. They both should be putting people on their butts.The Pacer game was horrible, Flip was bad, but not having a center to be the last line of defense to block shots is up to the coach.
