Here is Antoine's profile:

Position: Forward
Born: 08/12/76
Height: 6-9
Weight: 224 lbs. 
College: Kentucky '96

You can get Antoine's profile at

Your right, he doesn't have the size to play power forward.  He certainly
has the height, but 224 pounds won't cut it against a Barkley or Oakley. 
He is a true small forward.  He is a Scottie Pippen type player.  He does
have some rebounding ability which will be a benefit since there is no real
rebounder on this team.  I think Eric Williams is a better candidate for
power forward.  I don't know about Wallace though.  He is too inconsistent
and I'd rather get a Penny Hardaway or a Chris Webber, but then again
wouldn't we all?  But the point is, we need a center and we need a center
bad.
