As a backup center, his offensive talents complement Ewings. Furthermore you might see some Cartwright, Ewing, King lineups, especially against teams like Houston and Boston that can put in huge front lines against you. Webster will certainly be on the trading block (if they can get ANYTHING for him). As for playing Ewing at power forward, no way. He really is a DEFENSIVE machine, and his talents as such would be wasted at power forward. You want him in the middle of Hubie's 'zone'. -- Ron Samuels Harvard University Science Center ...harvard!h-sc1!samuels (or better yet) ...harvard!h-sc4!samuels_b
