To whomever wrote the above. You are a basketball genius. In addition I never heard of Kenyon being disruptive to his team…only to opponents,

Let Ibaka and Jackson continue to develop. If Ibaka can get some work in with Olajuwon this coming offseason it could pay big dividends in our low-post game….but as Kevin said, our boys would have to learn to pass the ball and accept an actual half-court offense. It would be great if there was a move they could make that would help them match up better with the Heat and still leave them able to survive the low-post onslaught they face in the Spurs, the Griz, the Lakers and even the Jazz. I just don’t see that magic bullet sitting out there.

So long as we’re a two man ISO team, it won’t matter who mans the post.

I think he’ll be playing overseas in a couple of years. Gortat – offensive upgrade but reminds me of Nenad Krstic meaning no inside defensive presence. This deal wouldn’t address the need for another scorer on the 2nd unit. Overall, I don’t think this deal is what we need. Sure hope Presti can find a better one or stand pat.
