He's 6'11" with a 7'6" wingspan. I think he will be a center in the league.

Leaving The Soup was the worst career decision ever.

That or signing on with Wipeout. Check it out, we made an unfunny version of mXc. Hell, maybe they have a japanese-dubbed version that is funny.

is Henson really a center? T Rob, then Henson would be interesting


SFP has said we should get him with the 2nd pick to grow into a nice defensive center. I know he takes a lot of flack for his unrelenting know-it-all attitude, but SFP also is right a lot.

People are also saying Davis may become a all-around force as a center. It really just depends on how their bodies mature. Either way, the concept of the true center is going dodo bird. I don't think anyone would have said Lamarcus Aldridge would become a center. I just think we're going to be seeing more PF/C types in the future. What used to be the prototype center is now more of a defensive presence only. There are only so many skilled 7 footers to go around.

And they can be minimized with a matchup center like Aaron Gray. I'd love to get him back but he probably wants a bigger role. He did get to start 40 of the 49 games he played for the Raptors this season.

I think what I like about TRob the most is the toughness he brings. I loved the attitude that DWest brought to our team when it gets more physical in the playoffs. We are going to need that kind of guy to ever be a contender.
