    The seven-foot centre will come off the bench after being primarily a starter throughout his nine-year NBA career, and is embracing his new role.</p>

    Raptors head coach Sam Mitchell has said that Andrea Bargnani will be the club's starting centre, at least with Chris Bosh in the lineup.</p>

    That means that Nesterovic, who started in 73 of the 80 games he played for the Raptors last season, will be regulated to bench duty.</p>

    "It's okay," Nesterovic said. "It's probably the point in my career when I can do more from the bench than as a starter. You just have to adjust (to the new role) and give everything you have."</div></p>

    He seems like a consummate professional. And I think he's correct when he says he can do more from the bench this season.</p>

    I don't think anyone wanted to see Matt Bonner go but man, has that ever turned out to be a great trade for the Raps (and the Spurs actually).</p>
