Someone created a thread talking about how the Cavs are so deep. I attempted to reply, but I think the person deleted the thread or something, but depth is a good topic. You need to have depth, so if a KG and Powe get hurt, you don't have guys who weren't even good enough to make the playoff roster on last yr's championship team, all of a sudden be called upon to be our 6th man. Here was my post to the response on the Cavs depth:
But Ainge/Wyc resigned Tony Allen, drafted Giddens and Walker, signed POB, Miles, Cassell, Marbury, and Moore? That's 8 additions. We have so much depth! I'm so glad we passed on Posey, Barnes, Nocioni, Birdman, Deke, McDyess, Chalmers, and Joe Smith.
Depth is killing us this yr. No offense to Scal, but when we won the title last yr, he wasn't even suiting up, b/c we had 12 players in front of him. Now he's our 6th man? I could see Scal as a 10, 11, or 12th man, but the fact that he's our 6th man and only big off the bench (and based on his size an undersized big at that), shows our depth problem. This is not intended to dog Scal. Scal came back from the concussions and is playing hard. He is what he is and is trying to step up, which should be commended, but Ainge really wiffed on all his pet projects. I'm just glad he didn't trade Rondo for Robert Swift.
