For anyone who is familiar with Mike Harris, is he capable of guarding the SG/SF position? For instance, is he someone you could put on Kobe Bryant, or is that out of the question? I think we could use another big wing defender.
No, actually, losing West would be like us losing Yao (although Yao is a bigger loss). Losing Landry puts us one behind NO in the personnel department.

He's agressive like landry. But I think he's a bit better. I think he's going to be the best penetrator on this team.
I think he's a big 3 or small 4, with good leaping ability and an outside shot, but asking him to guard quick 2s like Kobe would probably be a stretch. Battier will have to bear that load, and hopefully TMac will play a little more defense in the playoffs.
IMO , in NBA, he cant play PF although he was in the preseason, his only position in rockets is SF , but at this position ,we have battier and tracy , JS and penetration is very nice , i.e. he have no question in O ,his question is D , put on Kobe Bryant ? i dont think he can .
You're out of your mind if you think Deke is more mobile than Yao, on either end. Out-of-your-freaking-MIND. He is probably longer (wingspan), and times his blocks better, but he is NOT more mobile. How many more 3-second defensive violations do you need to see to understand that?
