Tucker Cut by Tigers?

To add fuel to the they will sign Newley threads i noticed the current poll on Gaze's site is.

What do you think of the Tigers signing David Barlow?

1Great. He is a superstar

2The Tigers are now the favourites for next season

3He won't make much difference

4They should have kept Tucker

5They shouldn't have signed him

They should have kept Tucker being vote option 4? Seems a little suggestive in that they have cut him to make way for a similar player??

Indication weeks and weeks ago was that they didn't want him back. Heading to Cairns I think.

Not the Sixers???

C Abney/Smith
F Cattalini/Jawai
F Tucker/???
G Mee/Boodnikoff
G Black/Grabau

That's a very good team.

Cook may be the back-up PG. Grabau and Boodnikoff the backup SG/SFs. Championship favourite at this stage.

Cairns did OK last year despite having two very average imports. They've added Black, Jawai and improved their imports - check out their odds as soon as you it's possible to bet, IMO.

C Larry Abney / Nathan Jawai
PF Martin Cattalini / Matt Smith
SF Rashad Tucker? / Aaron Grabau
SG Darnell Mee / Gary Boodnikoff
PG Steve Black / Scott Cook

if Black decides to stay in Europe:

C Abney / Jawai
PF Cattalini / Smith
SF Tucker / Grabau
SG Boodnikoff / Grabau
PG Mee / Cook

Mee would have Tucker help out with playmaking and ball-handling.

both line-ups look like championship contenders

Smith can only play centre.He's no good more than 2ft from the ring.

Plus Mee will always be there point guard and Black there SG. I think Tucker would be an interesting pick up and one I wouldn't be sure would be a good one.They basically have Mee at PG, Black at SG and Cat at SF so where would Tucker fit in? He's not exactly is PF and neither is Cat.Would you bring him off the bench? I still think they need to pick up another Big man preferably a centre and play Abney at the PF position.

I agree with Smith being no good more than 2 ft from the rim , but you should've told the sixers that when Smith went bannanas on us with 16 pts or thereabouts in the 4th quarter .
