Jimbo,
Take a chill pill dude.  Olowokandi has skills, which
you might have notioced if you actually watched the game.
Taylor, though he needs to improve on his rebounding
is one of the better young power forwards in the NBA.
Rogers also possesses a great deal of talent, and
Wright is somewhat similar to Jayson Williams.  But
they're all stuck in the basketball version of
purgatory, just waiting for the right team to
liberate them.  With potapenko playing well, obviously
you probably wouldn't be inclined to deal Walker
for Olowokandi at the moment, but Mercer for Taylor
is something I'd consider, and Rogers for Bowen and
Battie would be a great deal.
