No need to sigh. Chris Grant and Mike Brown have stated on multiple ocassions that they view Bennett as a 4 and he will receive minutes there exclusively his rookie year to lessen the learning curve.

Either Alonzo Gee or Earl Clark will start at the 3 this year. I have to imagine it will be Gee because Clark is an almost ideal running mate with Bennett in the second line. Clark is a defensive 3 and offensive 4 while Bennett projects opposite.

The lineup to start the season will most likely be:

Irving / Jack
Waiters / Miles
Gee / Clark
Thompson / Bennett
Varejao / Zeller

With Bynum bumping Varejao/Zeller when/if he is healthy. He still can't run the length of the court...hopefully he will be able to eventually.

hmmm I've heard different things from random sources, but I'm not local to the area and don't follow them that closely, so I'll believe you ;) Thanks for the insight. +1

Thompson and Zeller obviously. Zeller is more than capable of handling the Center spot i think.

never bennett and Thompson


not quite sure what you were trying to say here...

But no I don't believe either of them could play Center against a lot of teams. That's why I said Zeller at the Center spot, because he is a Center who got some quality minutes last year and a couple of starts to go along with it.

I believe Thompson played center much of his rookie year but if Zeller is healthy he will start

You are a bit late on that news. You also act as if they got a quality center.

Question: Who has a season-ending knee injury first? Oden or Bynum? On a side note, I think Oden should have signed with the spurs. Duncan would help him adjust and once he retired, Oden could help Kawhi Leonard as the Spurs move into a new generation

Birdman is a quality center. And they didn't have him all of last season.
