Looking back on your original post, that is what you said.  My bad.  
Furthermore, you're right in that he has given no explicit sign that he 
_will_ move Walker to small forward.  Still, I've just got a feeling.  I 
mean, for many reasons it seems pretty obvious, and I've gotta think 
that Obie does/will see that.  On the other hand, maybe he's set in 
having Walker, our power forward, hang around on the perimeter.  Guess 
we'll see.

I want to see something of the guys who haven't gotten much playing 
time, too, but not at the expense of being competitive and winning 
games.  I'd like to see if Moiso can "unleash the poodle", in other 
words, but not if it hurts our chances to win.  And, with Moiso, that's 
probably the case.  Herren will get minutes just because he's now the 
primary (only?) backup point guard.
