I watched the Philly series games 2 and 5. Even tho we won the series,
I strongly feel we should NOT resign Rogers. IMO, he is going downhill
(he's 30 now). I see him as a slow footed, perimeter oriented,
undersized (6-7) power forward, who will likely play more and more
AWAY from the basket - which is not what is needed *traditionally* in
a PF.

If Wallace resigns him, I think he would become like the Rhandy Brown
signing, roster and cap burden.

In my mind, Rogers (and Delk), is good only for this playoff run.
