Point of clarification: Stromile averaged 13 points and 7 boards per game in 
his second season (last year). If only Kedrick was giving the C's anything 
remotely close to those numbers in this his second year. 

What Stromile as you say "figured out just now" is that finally the PF spot 
for the Griz is his to lose. His first year he played behind Shareef; last 
season there was a glut of veterans in Long, Massenburg, and Lo Wright, along 
with the prized rookie Gasol who was being shuffled between both the "4" and 
the "5" spot. This season, the team added Gooden to the mix trying to 
determine if he was a "3" or a "4". Ever since Gooden was traded and the 
constant trade rumors involving Stro became a thing of the past, he has 
played terrific ball now that he's being given consistent minutes. 

22 points, 10 boards, 3 dimes, and 3 more blocks tonight  vs. the Bulls in a 
big 30 point (or so home) W. "He got game."
