    We need a big man who can get the ball around the 3 pt line - then drive it to the rim and throw it down with 2 hands in crunch time...

    We are thinking about this the wrong way IMO.

    I want a big guy that can dribble. Hes got to be able to create his own path to the basket after getting the ball in the pick and roll , or if the help defender comes then make the right pass to a 3 point shooter. Ideally this guy could also run some nice tight give and go's with James. I think the way to beat some of these defenses is actually to clog things up a bit, but have superior interior passing.

    Our Interior attack really suffers in the playoffs. The league also did better on the James-Clint lob this season. I dunno if Clint's athleticim declined or Harden's passing did. But if we keep clint , that has to get back to a higher level. Clint needs to be able to get the ball from 10-15 feet out and make whatever defense he's playing against pay.

    I always think that if CP3 and Nene were both 30, we would beat the Warriors.

    Really intrigued by his game he's definitely a modern day Center who can spread the floor would replace Capela easily ..I see he's being projected as a mid first round pick that's attainable I hope the Rox are interested
