Are you satisfied with the offseason (so far)

He’s CUSTOM made for the role he’ll play here, and as we’ve seen, it’s not a super easy role to fill.

I started off thinking this way, but the more I look into it, the more worried I am he will end up becoming a matchup problem for us. I don't care how good you guard up, when you are consistently giving up significant amount of size at your position, you are likely to end up getting punished for it, especially when you are now playing a starting role consistently against other starting lineups. There's a reason he wasn't a starter in Boston and got dropped from their rotation in the playoffs.

I still like the pickup, but I can see a lot of matchup problems with him playing heavy minutes at the 4 spot, especially when he's gonna often be on an island playing alongside a much lower caliber of defender than he used to to with the Celtics where he would have gotten a lot more assistance with defensive duties than he will get here.
