GREAT post.
1) This absolutely makes the most sense of the roster we see.
2) You make a GREAT point here, that the reason KP wanted C in DAL was because he wanted to touch the ball and be involved in the motions. In NYK (if I am not mistaken) he much preferred PF.
3) I can totally see Kidd wanting to at least start by TRYING to play "big."
4) I think this is the most important point. DP+KP in 19-20: 117.1 O, 105.3 D, +11.8 Net. I think KP's best play defensively has been alongside DP. I think it is the Mavs best chance to be a good defensive team. KP needs to be a weakside shot blocker to be at his most effective.
