    Really meant backup four, but you get my point..
    Maybe we will see Battier at the 4 w/ a combo of Martin/Ariza/Budinger on the wings just like Carl Herrera mentioned.

    There is also a hidden gem in all this, and his name is Hilton Armstrong! The dude is a solid 7 footer who has a decent outside shot and freakish athletic ability. Don't sleep on him! Morey did say he wanted a young athletic big man playing next to Yao, thats why the deal with Haywood and Dalembert didn't make sense to me because both were old and overpaid.

    I'm a little surprised at all the Battier talk. Just because he's somewhat "expendable" or redundant, doesn't mean we should trade him. I know Ariza and Budinger can pick up some of what he does, but I don't think Battier is an easy replacement. IMHO, trading away Landry will have less of an effect on the team than trading away Battier.

    I'm not opposed to trading Battier, but I just think we should be getting more than a backup or even OK PF. We should be looking at packaging him with some other pieces for Bosh or Amare.

    I'd be quite content with the lineup:
    Brooks/Lowry
    Martin/CBud/JTaylor
    Ariza/Battier
    Scola/(Hill or whoever else Morey brings in)
    Hayes/Anderson/Armstrong
