| To early for him to start. Keep him coming off the bench especially in the 3 quarter, because that's when we really need him. |

Kobe said that Ronny is learning the tri pretty fast, but he did 14 minutes the other night, and was totally spent, winded. He still has conditioning work to do, and his minutes would be better spent off the bench, for now. |

If Madsen was able to start during certain stretches with the championship teams, there's no reason Ronny couldn't get to that level also.
I think he has more tools than Madsen, but the same type of hussle and aggression. A lot of Lakers fans were begging for a player that had Madsen's tenacity/desire/aggression, in a better/bigger NBA body. Turiaf can eventually get there. For now, I'll just take his enthusiasm and energizing attitude. Just imagine what kind of player Kwame could be if he had the same mentality, attitude and approach as Turiaf!

| too early for this season. next season, it depends on who would be on the floor with him. If we trade kwame and keep mihm, then it's a good possibility he could start, cuz mihm gives us offense. If we trade mihm and kwame is our starting center, then I think cook would be a better option, because we need cook for offense. we'd have cook/brown for offense/interior defense respectively. in the other scenario, we'd have mihm for offense/shot blocking, and ronny for defense/shotblocking. |

"awkward" is not quite the right word. Over zealous, hyper, amped, just so much nervous energy, he needs to channel that a little bit more. |

| The question really is, can it get any worse than Kwame Brown at this point? Anybody but Kwame at this point, whether its Cook, Turiaf, Mihm moving to the four and giving Bynum minutes. Im just curious if those guys could do any worse. |

This year, no. Conditioning and experience are still BIG factors for Ronny to work on.
Next year, though? I think it's wide open at that 4 spot.
And I mean WIDE open. Kwame may get put at C, Mihm could be trade bait, who knows?
