True: Unless P.J. chokes Kevin Durant he will not be fired by a Popovich disciple--at least not in two years anyway. There aren't really any expectations for P.J. to fall short of at this point.</p> T/F: Clay Bennett will own thisfranchise past 2010.</p>

False. Durant and Green will likely make the rookie team, but Sene/Gelebale won't even be in the discussion for the sophomore team.</p> True or False: Seattle's <u>opening day</u> starting lineup is:</p> C: Chris Wilcox PF: Nick Collison SF: Jeff Green SG: Kevin Durant PG: Luke Ridnour</p>
False: Robert Swift will start instead of Nick Collison, Earl Watson may start ahead of Ridnour, and something tells me that Jeff Green is going to end up coming off of the bench his first season -- just to give our bench some more firepower. Our best line up definitely includes Nick Collison but I don't think that he will start unless there is an injury to Swift or Weezy.</p> T/F: One of our three centers (Swift, Petro, Sene) will be traded before the deadline.</p>

I think that West will prove he is the combo guard they are looking for to balance Luke with. We will see West at the 1 (with KD at the 2) and the 2 (with KD at the three)and he will get plenty of PT, but not start. This is a make or break year for Ridnour and PJ will give him a shot. Earl is a known commodity but the feeling in the franchise is that Luke hasn't found his peak yet.</p> Swift will be ready by 10/31. He has been extraordinarily disciplined in his rehab (particularly for such a young kid) and is radiating hunger to put his game on the floor. With his height, his new bulk, and that hunger, PJ will have to start him. He will give him limited minutes early, knowing he has Nick, Thomas, Petro and Sene available, but will be focused on building chemistry in his starting lineup.</p> CB32's question is still up.</p> <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticBalla32)</div><div class='quotemain'>[True or False: By the All-Star break, both Durant and Green are starting.</div> </p> </p>
True: Durant and Green will probably be starting from the start of the season. </p> T/F: Wally Sczerbiak (however you spell it) willbe a part of the rotation and come in and average atleast 12 points a game. </p>
True. Wally World!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> True or false? Wally Szczerbiak (that's how you spell it, and no, I didn't have to look it up) will win Most Improved Player. </p> True. He is the Wallyrus. Coo coo kachoo.</p> True or false? Michael Jordan is jealous of Wally Szczerbiak's competitive drive.</p> False. They're about even.</p> True or false? Luke Ridnour is a better point guard than Luke Walton.</p>
True. both suck at defense, but Ridnour's way cooler, and not in a strange relationship with richard jefferson.</p> True/False: the Sonics will make another big trade by the trade deadline '08.</p>
False. He read it but has a short memory.</p> T/F - Lauren Jackson will end up in the rotation at some point.</p>
