Swift set to take a big role

It must be kind of weird to bolt a team in free agency and then get traded right back there, but that's what Stromile Swift is facing with the Grizzlies. Last year, I thought Swift was the missing piece for a Rockets team that was going to do good things. But it didn't turn out that way. Apparently Jeff Van Gundy didn't like his attitude and his defense, which is based solely around swatting shots and no fundamentals. But, with Gasol nursing his foot injury for about half the season, Swift's going to get a ton of burn. Hopefully, he can finally live up to his # 2 drafting billing. He has a great NBA body and is an amazing athlete. He's another of these players who has been living off his potential for more than 4 years. It's time to produce buddy.
