    Yes I think our bench is just fine this season, and for the playoffs. It would be nice if wes hadn't gotten hurt, might have been the best bench in the league if he hadn't. What is really nice is that every player except Crabbe has gotten fairly significant "real" minutes this season, so they are comfortable playing.

    I'm not sure if this is a good position for the team to be in, but I see Meyers as an important X-factor. He has shown improvement, and is a good weapon when he is hitting his shots, but I always find myself yelling at the TV "dammit Meyers, you gotta get that rebound" or "dammit Meyers, you needed to set a better screen" or "dammit Meyers, rotate over faster and block that shot". We need to change his name to Dammit Meyers. Anyway, good shooting aside, I think he could make a huge contribution with intangibles and although his experience level is below Freeland's, sometimes under playoff fire guys can rise to the occasion.

    Just wait until Wes is sitting on the bench again with his crutches...best vocal bench general on the team!
