FA: Spencer Dinwiddie Heads to DAL | 1 yr/vet min

I play Maxi over Naji at the 4 to the extent I see Maxi as a better PF, and when I think the matchup at PF will better favor Maxi's added size, and to the extent Naji might be playing elsewhere (specifically, at SF, where I see Naji as the likely primary backup to Klay).

I agree with the first sentence, I just think that extent will be very limited because I think Naji defense will be at least close to what Maxi can bring against 4s, and his offense is significantly better than Maxi at the 4.

I think Grimes makes more sense backing up Klay.  They are very similar players, high volume 3&D guys.  My guess is part of our differences are due to you not being sold on Grimes yet.

As for where Maxi fits best:

Maxi + PJ had a net rating of +18
Maxi + Gafford had a net rating of -6
