    Glad this move was made. McHale would have been an idiot to march Delfino back out there in the starting 4 spot again.

    What are the chances he steps in and starts filling in a lot of the needs we've seen with this team? Who knows, he could just end up being the PF of the future for this team! Even if he isn't, assuming he plays well he could be the centerpiece of a trade for a star PF/C meaning we can keep T-Rob who I think is an ideal energy sixth man off the bench. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this roster develops over the next few seasons!

    Very happy to see them finally make the obvious move.

    Asik/(Motiejunas)/(Smith)
    Motiejunas/Smith/Robinson
    Parsons/Delfino
    Harden/Garcia
    Lin/Beverley

    Really like what he brings to the spot. Twin towers with Asik but he brings a perimeter game and mobility for a big man, very rare combination.

    Would like to see Mchale use this on a regular basis rather than as counter to playing a team with size.

    That's funny.

    We're gonna look like a midwestern university team.

    Wow the Vanilla Towers with the inverted V. High five-ing already before the block.

    You wouldn't put Robinson at the 5 before D-Mo?

    I know that's said a bit "tongue-in-cheek" but... I really do have high expectations for the guy! :grin:

    Someone mentioned that he would be starting within the next few games. Looks like they were right.
    D-Mo is going to shock the NBA.

    Good news. No more Delfino at the 4. Hope DMo improves on defense going forward.
