I view the McGee signing on how he matches up to the best teams in the West. For me that is LAC and the Warriors. We need McGee to break even against Zubac and Looney. In these matchups, it will probably be a rush to see which big can get played off the floor first. But in the meantime, in this years playoffs and in several Clippers games, both Looney and Zubac have had some good games against us. Sure Zubac struggled in some of those playoff matchups, but check out some of his lines in '20 and '21 below. We need to get similar production in a matchup against those teams.

In looking at the Clippers, I think there is still glaring we need another wing who can defend. Clippers are really positioned well to go big early, but their most damage will be going small but being able to play big with Kawaii, George, Batum playing the wings.
We also need another creator because their length will really make things tough for our players who rely on open looks.
