I am affraid that all options with center (Sabonis also mentioned lately) will just not be good enough defensively, especially in the playoffs. I think a big wing is the guy they really should be playing next to KP. If they can't, then trade KP. Mavs don't have enough talent to get a respectable playoff spot playing suboptimal lineups.
I agree. I think the piece I am envisioning is a PF who can play on the perimeter as well....more than a Center. We have limited assets so we need to prioritize. I think the center is much easier to find. I am just not sure if there is a deal for that PF right now. If not, we need to find a way to get better center play. I think finding a short term solution will be available to us. Even if that is just 15% better than what we already have.
