I think you make an excellent point. The counter is the overall D (and rebounding and shot blocking) is better. That makes the question whether overall ability trumps system. I think Powell HAD to play that way because once someone got into the lane (drop coverage) he was one of the worst defenders in the league (or at least people shot a very high percentage against him). That won't be the case against McGee and when people miss we will be more likely to get the board. We won't know how it will work until we know. But, we are the team that supposedly played McGee off the floor and we still wanted him (and two of our coaches know him very well).
Did the Suns coach say why he got away from McGee and played Biombo?
