Doc Rivers - "The only guy I really worry about is Bynum"

Bass isn't a 5. KG is their 5 now.

Anyway, i think Doc was probably talking in terms of who KG can reasonably defend without double teams.

For a relatively slender center like KG, Dwight may actually be easier than a behemoth like Bynum. Bynum has too much lower body strength for KG to handle in post ups.
If you don't help, most Bynum possessions are likely to end in layups/dunks. If you do help, that opens up the shooters.

Dwight and KG hate each other and Dwight goes out of his way to destroy KG whenever he guards him. This was 2-3 years ago. Now it would be an even bigger mismatch. KG is paper mache against either guy. To take it further: I have serious doubts KG can last the entire 82 games playing the 5 next season.

The lone exception being if the entire team gets tired of listening to Doug Collins and things go south. If anyone here is a betting person, you may want to put money on this.

I have to hand it to you, I guess. You keep plugging away after being so horribly wrong about Collins for years now.
