    In probably the best game of the tournament so far, we saw what power is all about. Baxter put on a clinic in how to use your size at the position to dominate even against taller defenders. That is why we should not even consider trading MoT, with the bulk he adds to this team. EG is a special talent but there is something to be said for size and bulk. I just missed those monster slams of MoT, ala Duncan. So even if we were assured that MoT is perfectly healthy we should not be looking to move him.

    While Mo is big, he doesn't play to his size.

    If Mo can ever play more physically, he has the potential to be a 20 and 10 guy.

    Mo taylor is a great power forward and I can't praise this guy enough. He fits great with this team, if he wants he can body it up down low or he can shoot the 17-20ft jumper. I like the way he plays.
