KL - Got it. No worries. But as you say "I didnt mean it THAT way" and object to the label of strawman, I would invite you to read and consider YOUR WORDS that I quoted. Who are you disconnected from? Whose planning are you contrasting when you say that's "not MY planning". If the answer to those is "no one" then that is EXACTLY what a strawman argument is, and all I did is point it out for what it was to try to get you to stop it. 

Point taken, but my whole aim in the conversation (with you and others who think similarly but maybe not identically) is to see which of the following is most accurate. Do we see this differently because:

1) We see what works best for the center position (and by extension, every position) differently?

2) We see the importance of the center position differently? (this is what I was hinting at. I sometimes get the feeling that some equate good, deep center representation on the roster with a good team). 

3) We see Daniel Gafford (or AD, or Lively...or PJW, for that matter) differently in terms of value on and off the court? 

...and I still can't put my thumb on it, if I'm being honest. Anyhoo, it's not worth causing a kerfuffle over, so I apologize for my part in it. 

Happy 4th!
