Yeah, if you want unbiased objectivity, Tommy's the man...
Not.  Rodgers is a mobile wide-load at 6-7, 250 with offensive
skills, both inside and outside.  He may be Walker insurance,
if Antoine's game continues to disintergrate, or Pitino decides
to move him for a quality point guard.  Whatever the case, yea
to Rogers.  Battie and McCarty serve the same niche on the team,
and one's already under contract for $3 million.  It would be cap
foolish to lock up two bench guys that play similar roles, to 
long-term space-eating contracts.
