    I was watching another Thread about KT and DREw for Kandi man and Nesby

    I like this Trade because. .
    IS THERE ANY REASON CATO CANNOT PLAY PF
    The buiser PF we need/want

    'Los then is the Softer swifter PF off the bench
    A nice pick up at SF and the Squad is 2-deep
    everywhere

    C - Kandi/Cato/Pig
    PF - Cato/ los/Tmass
    SF - Walt/ new SF/ bull
    SG - Shan/ Cat
    PG - Francis/Drew
    [13 players . . .]

    I don't know about you but the Offense is backcourt heavy but the defense is very Tall
    Frontline [Kandi on Shaq with Cato on the
    Weak side would not be all that bad]

    I quite like the idea of having two talls in the rotation at the same time, but Cato has a couple of strikes against him as a PF

    a) He wil have a lot of trouble defending mobile PFs (like Garnett)
    b) You really like you PFs to be a valid low post threat. The only threat Cato poses from the low post is that he will miss dunks.

    How many teams have a dominant Center and PF?

    closest thing is Spurs. maybe Webber and Divac

    Garnett would be a jump shooter because
    if he gets around Kevin he has to contend
    with Kandi. [Plus 'Los could get nice minutes
    at SF]

    I think our frontline would be above average.

    THat would be fine but one of them would have to be able to hit a jumper once in a while. Every team that has ever played two big guys and been successful relied on one of them having some offensive game besides putbacks and alley-oops. Neither Cato or Kandi has enough game to put them both in the lineup at the same time. Another thing is that the best way to stop a good offense is to make them play D. That lineup would allow the other teams big men to catch their breath on defense. Nice try though.
