The X factor,,,,Elson

I'd say he weights 210.

In a winter coat.

Elson had to be better (I'm not defending Elson) but true centers are a tough matchup for Elson because he is too light.

When I see Spurs playoff schedule, i rather have a quick light player like Elson than a true big and slow center. The big next to Ducan will have to defend on Odom in the first round, Stoudamire/Diaw/marion in the second round and Dirk for the WCF.

Spurs' roster lacks a true center to play against Howard/Curry/Shaq/Yao. Butler is the only one close to that but he doesn't play. Let's hope we won't meet Houston or Miami in playoffs.

...a wet winter coat.

One thing I noticed last night: he didn't have his usual advantage in transition. Darko can run with his ass!!

Or Yao in the first round...

i'm not worried about elson. elson's been good when given the minutes. or at least good enough. the spurs don't need much out of the center position. just someone who can rebound and defend the rim. like 'knowing rotations' should not be the deciding factor in who gets the minutes.

.

Well,you should now,yesterday against the Magics:2 pts,2 boards.
hey,but he shooted 50 % FG.!!!

Elson is the F factor along with every other big not named Duncan.

Or Yao in the first round...

It's unlikely.

Jazz will win the northwest division but they are slowing down and shouldn't have a best record than both Spurs and Rockets at the end of the season : they will get the 4th seed.

Lakers have 3 more loss than Rockets and 4 more than Spurs and Jazz, Brown is out 6 more weeks : they should get the 6th seed.

We should have something like that at the end of the season :
1. Mavs
2. Suns
3. Spurs or Rockets
4. Jazz
5. Rockets or Spurs
6. Lakers
