    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Before last night's game against the Chicago Bulls, Wizards Coach Eddie Jordan said he planned to work Etan Thomas back into the rotation gradually.

    Thomas had five points and two rebounds in 16 minutes last night after missing 13 games with a sprained left ankle. Brendan Haywood made his 13th start last night; the Wizards are 11-2 with him as a starter.

    Thomas averaged 7.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 21.4 minutes in 20 games as a starter.

    "He's not going to carry a lot of minutes," Jordan said of Thomas.</div>

    I don't like the decision of moving Etan Thomas back in the rotation this soon, espicially with the way Haywood has been playing. It's like the old saying, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Haywood has been playing the best basketball of his career and you don't want to ruin that right now.

    I like Thomas. I remember he was the X-Factor in the playoff series win over the Bulls that the wizards has 2 years ago. He came up huge for them when called on. I think its his chance to prove himself here.
