What he need the most is to play WITH defensive center like Asik... He will never be a center... Raptors tried to make Andrea a center, how well that went for them? He will be better reb and post player then Andrea, but will never be a defensive stopper... Trade him to Dallas, they will make Dirk2 out of him.
I agree, he won't ever be a center but I think right now he needs playing time and to develop his post moves. I wish Scola was still around as I think he would have been a great teacher for Motiejunas who probably could have picked up a few of his post moves.
Everytime he gets in paint he falls down with little contact, he needs to come to the woodlands and powerlift with me for a month
Exactly. D-Mo + Asik would be DEADLY. One is offensive powerhouse, other is defensive fortress. They compensate each other perfectly.
He needs a pg like Machado that can pass him the ball in the post. That way he can magically dominate the paint.
So that's why I think he would better play with Machado or Lin. Just stick to Pick & Pop at the beginning of this season, more PnR later and finally try to beat the big man with much more muscle in the low-post next year.
