How would you describe your offseason as a whole and tell me about the players you have signed in the free for all..

Check the original post for a review of Seattle's offseason. Feel free to ask more questions now that the roster is complete.

Rumor is you're starting Dirk at center and Harrington at PF. What concerns do you have defensively with that frontcourt and what are other alternatives with a bigger lineup?

Obviously starting those players in those positions is going to be a liability defensively, but it is not small ball as Harrington is big even for a 4 and Dirk is big for a 5. The advantage to this lineup is being able to put the best 5 players on the floor at a time. The floor spacing and ball handling ability that that lineup would achieve would be unstoppable offensively and hopefully be scoring 110+ points per game, far to much for any opposing offense to score on a consistent basis. If this experiment doesn't work, expect a return to the traditional Mihm, Dirk, Harrington ultra big and traditional lineup.
