Another undersized PF?

No

The same undersized PF.

Finding quality big men seems to be a problem for everyone.

But Harris can play, so that’s something at least.

Significant gravitas shortfall expected in 2010.

I thought he was a SF.

I know forwards are able to switch easily, but his natural position is SF isn’t it?

No

His natural position is definitely power forward. He’s been transitioning to play small forward since last season, though.

What is it about Harris' game that makes him a PF?

I’m just curious, because he definitely seems to have the size of a SF, not a big man.

He went to Rice, so he played PF for them. I guess once you learn a skill set its too hard to change. He was awesome in college, until Nevada found out that he was worthless if you double-teamed him. Long story short – unless he has changed since college, he is a TERRIBLE passer.

This move is obviously due to our recent injuries

Might as well call up Jermaine Taylor too

taylor is a sg.

our backcourt is doing fine… well relatively

We signed him for this year and he’s non-guaranteed for next year also. He’s played for us before too in 2008. I guess Adelman knows his system takes time to learn so he wants someone who’s on the same page with us.

Temple was signed by San Antonio. When he was with us, I know Adelman commented that Temple should not try to do too much and just run our offense. So maybe that’s why we didn’t try to sign him even though he could play. Next year we still need a 3rd PG.
