We start three guards, and that's counting Deng as
a forward.  Shavlik is their only decent backup.
That's not depth, that's a glaring weakness.  I've
been hoping Melchionni would come along, but
he doesn't play very "tall" anyway.

Five *hard* fouls.  I hate it when real beef gets those
ticky-tacky fouls.  The scary part is that we will need
Horvath against some teams.

Where's my stinkin' gin?  This team may need to zone.
