RE: Who Is That Man?
NASH13 ...what did you mean by "that says a lot when you're a big man that can't get minutes on that team. "
I have to disagree, Detroit is LOADED with big men, they have more than they can play.
Okur is their emerging C, an emerging talent, and is young. Wallace is the PF and he is an all-star. Then you have Campbell who is a big 7-0 vet. Milicic was the 2nd overall pick and you want to try to get him some minutes to develop, when you can. Corliss Williamson also provides size.
They have talent at the 3, so no room to steal minutes from there and give it to a 4/5 type.
IMO, the fact that he isnt get much PT doesnt reflect on his ability. (Note - there are also some health issues - but the glut of Bigs in Motown is what keeps his PT limited, I believe.)
