    We already have a starting PF. What we need is a back up PF. Someone who brings energy off the bench, and who can start when injuries occur. I am not sure I care exactly how big Robinson is. He seems big enough to me for that role. If he was any bigger, with those hops, I doubt he would be content to come off the bench. Nor would we have been able to get him in the first place. Personally I am happy with the scenario as it is.

    JJ Hickson has not shown defensive ability period.

    I have no voice today from last night's game. "Love" what Love said about the Ptd crowd:

    ''This is a good team, even with LaMarcus out,'' said Love, who also had 10 rebounds for his league-leading 47th double-double. ''They're good, they can put up points in a hurry. They shot the ball well and this is one of the best, if not the best, crowds in the league.''

    what I saw on that sequence is that he has very quick hands. he had his hands (or forearms on love's body and twice Love tried that trick where a guy swings his arms up very quickly trying to get a foul call; but Robinson pulled his hands back so quick that there was no contact. I've also seen some slap steals by him that show very quick hands, a little bit like jerome kersey used to do.

    TRob is like a concrete wall, when he gets his feet set very few guys can move him out of position. He was amazing last night and you could see LaMarcus just beaming on the sidelines.
