    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting franchise3:</div><div class="quote_post">I think Vlade will come off the bench just like the Rockets forward rotation right now. Kelvin Cato is not essentially better than Maurice Taylor but he still slides over to centre whne Yao comes out and Taylor comes in. The Kings might do the same thing when Webber comes out. With these three, any formation Adelman puts out will be a nigtmare for defenders with their height and pure strength.</div>

    I agree here, Vlade's still a great passer, but he's just not that explosive or fast. He'll school rookies though, Webber is needed for offense and defense, as he's arguably one of the strongest players in the league. Miller's played a big part, he puts up great numbers and support for team chemistry and the team's wins. He's a key factor in the Kings, it'd be a shame if he played reliever for Webber.

    Maybe bring Webber off of the bench? It probably won't happen but it would be interesting to bring Webb off of the bench.

    Play Webb and Miller together make Vlade come off the bench. But ease Webber into the rotation first....you wouldn't want him to be injured again before the playoffs.

    I think Vlade sits when C-Webb returns. He's an old man now, he could use some rest. They're gonna need a fresh Vlade come playoff time cause his experience and passing prowess will definitely be needed.

    It's working out well so far. They are all getting their fair share of minutes and getting their points in too. And to think people said it wouldn't work out....tsk tsk tsk

    I think I heard from somewhere that brad is totally okay with not starting. The Kings are known for being a very unselfish team, and they should be able to pull through situations like this.

    ^ That's great. Egos are poison for a team's chemistry.

    I think Miller would work off the bench...he's a perfect complement to the second unit, providing a post presence with shooters Bobby Jackson and Anthony Peeler...a frontcourt rotation of Divac, Webber and Miller is just crazy...
