That'll get exposed for sure, especially in the West, where there's so many elite big men.</div> Looks to me like he's at SF. I'm assuming the starting lineup looks like: <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Luke Ridnour - 9 pts, 10 ast, 1 stl Kevin Durant - 24 pts, 4 ast, 2 blk, 1 to Jeff Green - 24 pts, 7 reb, 4 ast, 2 blk, 1 to Nick Collison - 6 pts, 6 reb, 1 ast Chris Wilcox - 13 pts, 9 reb, 2 blk, 1 stl, 1 to</div>
I can't seem to get Collison going on the offensive end either. Either way my 4 is going to be a weak defender, no matter if it's Collison or Jeff Green. That's why I am thinking of moving him down to 4, Durant to 3, and Wilkins in at 2. I also would be willing to part ways with Watson, but Ridnour, not so much unless it's a very good deal. I really like his release and he's young. I'd personally love to get rid of Collison for a good Center or PF, but I'm going to wait a little bit before I ASK for any trades. If something is offered to me, I'll take a look at it.

I can't really get Petro going on the offensive end either, and with the difference in overalls, I'd rather have Collison running around not doing anything than Petro, haha. It's like a 79 vs a 65...I'll take my chances with Collison for now, but I want to develop Sene and Petro over time and I hope to have those two as my starter and backup Centers.
I suppose you could try to play Green like the Suns did Marion. I'm not sure how good he is in the game (or in real life, for that matter), but you'd really have to run the ball. I think your roster has the tools for it, so it'd be interesting. As for the draft, I'll just say go for the best player available. The Sonics have been drafting for need for the last couple seasons and, as a result, they've reached for project centers and wasted a bunch of those pics.
If you want good production from a low-rated guy on your team, throw Robert Swift in there. I've used Seattle a couple of times against friends and he is an absolute monster in the game. Another guy in free agency, if you're looking to pick someone up there, that is productive in the game is Michael Olowokandi. He gobbles up a lot of boards in limited minutes. He isn't a running center though, so I doubt he really fits in Seattle (nor is he really worth it with 3 project 5's on your roster as it is - just throwing him out there).
