The way I see it, we have Morris, Solo and Zaza who are capable of playing Center for this team. I don't even know if we need another big. I have to admit, I'm hoping that Morris gets a real chance to show us what he can do. I believe in him a little and I think he might surprise us. Yep, I fell for the hometown signing, but only after Sekou gave the glowing report of Morris' workout. So if Morris does not work out, I'm holding Sekou responsible...

However, just in case things don't work out with what we have....I have some suggestions and thoughts on those suggestions to add to the blogsphere.

1. Scott Pollard.

This guy has a motor. He's a big and really, it seems like nobody cares that he's available. I wonder what it would take to bring him in. Once here, I think he'd fight for a spot... maybe even a starting spot. Moreover, this guy is a NBA champion!?! Those are nice credentials (even though he didn't play one second on that team)...

2. Lorenzen Wright.

I know. This seems like a backwards move. Been there, done that. But there's 2 advantages to getting Wright. He knows the defense and the team... Also, he wouldn't have to spend so long finding a place to live. The problem is that Wright would just be BU fodder.. but hey wouldn't anybody we bring in be back up fodder?

3. Earl Barron.

While I was watching for Skinny Kenny out of the OSU to play for Miami, there was this big 7 foot monster who took Ken Johnson's opportunity. While Miami was in the midst of a down year, I had a few opportunities to watch this guy. His name was Earl Barron. Sure he's d-League material... but he's good d-League Material. He goes about 7 foot 250. Still he's a hustle guy. The only problem is that he don't have the shot blocker gene. He has the hustleman gene. That's probably why he hasn't been picked up yet. All he does is hustles. Still when we played Miami in April (during the latter part of the season)... in a game we needed to win, this guy showed up and scored and rebounded well for d-league material.

Well, after considering our team, I have to say... do we need another big? I don't think so. I think we need to learn to use the bigs we have.

Think:

We have Horford, Zaza, Morris, Smoove, Hunter, Solo. That's 6 bigs to choose from and it's a strong possibility that Hunter not make the cut. Not to mention Heavy Marvin. So how should we fill out our roster.

Here's a thought...

Ronald Dupree.

I say we keep those 6 or 5 bigs as our rotation of bigs and we bring ina guy like Dupree. An SEC guy who has never disappointed. Sure he has some holes in his game, who doesn't? He'd be a great BU SF and we'd have a good fight to look forward to him and Mo Williams for PT. It also allows Marvin to BU PF if necessary and allows us to look at Solo and Morris at the C position.

Thoughts?
