If there has been one consistent trait with Masai over his history, its that he does not make knee jerk decisions.

I agree on the defense.  I think Rez will become an elite NBA defender, and Sasser is a decent POA defender, but the rest is a mixed bag.  I think the focus on the board is on offense because it was so bad and painful to watch last season.  I think the general mindset is lets get a watchable (even fun) team and then worry about how to take the defense to the next level.

Another thing we agree on except "the rest is a mixed bag". I don't think that Lively, Flagg, Martin, or PJ belong in the mixed bag category. All are very good - to elite defenders.
