I'm ok with starting a big next to him for load management but this team will go nowhere until the spacing improves and that means unleash KP at center. With his improved mobility on defense and increasing frequency of post-ups it makes even more sense to play him at center. Shockingly, we've rarely seen this look.
DFS and Kleber are perfectly capable of playing PF, especially if Kidd insists on starting a traditional center to eat 10-14 minutes every night.
Non-shooting bigs are the easiest types to find right now so if WCS and Powell can't get the job done maybe you look to make a small deal for a beefy pick setter or energy guy. I don't think you need to give up a lot though. Just play this year's version of KP where he can do unicorn things and see what happens. If KP can't stay healthy this team is doomed anyway.
I don't disagree with a word of this, but how does it equal "don't agree" with the sentence of mine you quoted?
