I'm thinking Simmons will be the 3 & Victor the 4, not the other way around

That's how I see it. Got slammed before, but we have no center at all if both Mickey and Martin leave. Lucky if either get picked first round, Mickey is 6'6 or 6'7 at best, not good enough outside and not big enough inside. Martin looks lazy, 6'8-6'10 with no dominant inside or outside game. Tyrus Thomas part 2

Comparing Martin to Tyrus? I literally see zero connection...

I haven't watched the NBA in nearly 20 years, probably longer.... Is the NBA now advocating a much "softer" play, a la the NFL? If so, then M&M will be gone. If not, then M&M should stay one more year. Those two are as soft as Charmin tissue.
The NBA is not what it used to be. I used to love the NBA, mid to late 90s I started lose interest. Part of it I can't explain, part of it is that I feel there are very few great basketball players in today's game, great athletes no doubt, but the game has changed and I feel for worse.

Unless Robinson or Malone improve a lot I can see:
Victor
Simmons
Hornsby
Blakeney
Gray
Quarterman is 6th man once again, if not the starting PG. Lyle gets 15-20 minutes a game. Patterson 15-20 minutes as well.
If Robinson/Malone/Epps do not improve much, we will be hurting bad at the big man spot. As long as 1 can step up and be a reliable 20 minute type of performer, we will have some big man depth.
I really want us to add a big man late, but it doesnt seem like we're tareting anyone. Might as well pickup a JUCO flyer and roll the dice IMO. There's some big guys still out there:
(6'8, 230) Kimani Jackson - New Mexico J.C.
10.1 pts, 6.7 reb a game
(6'8, 260) Jordan Washington - Indian Hills C.C.
13.4 pts, 7.2 reb a game
(6'9, 295) Brandon Walters - Walters State C.C.
13.1 pts, 8.1 reb a game
(6'11, 230) Travon Bunch - Finishing out prep school in N.C. - played for Atlanta Celtics

Agreed
Victor isn't a 3
