If you think about it he's pretty much the same type of player as Anderson but Diaw is a better 3pt shooter. I know it's early but I'm looking at the big picture and the long run. Having West play the 4 instead of the 5 could help his production...You gotta give Anderson a chance to prove himself and maybe up his trade value...but I think this could be an option if all else fails

Thoughts?

No. the bench would be painfully slow. the answer is Rasual Butler at the 3 and Boban at the 5. Bench West, who is currently lost, not rebounding, not offering rim protection, or proper rotations.

BUTLER

So you like West playing Center?

It's just a thought. We've done it before and it wasn't an epic failure. What's the difference playing Anderson at the 3? Both are slow footed on defense but Diaw is better shooter and playmaker.

Boris is too slow for play the 3, it's like make KA the 2.

:lol to be fair, that's not an awful idea... even being slow for the 3 Boris is still 10 times faster and more agile than Kyle freaking Anderson

I'm not saying it's an answer but with West stuggling to get minutes and people wanting to see Boban...I dunno how else you would do it

I'd prefer Diaw over Anderson tbh. We messed up the american Anderson picks lately me thinks.

Boban is going to take D-West minutes just like Maurice Speight took David Lee's minutes last season.

It depends completely on match ups... against Gallinari, DeMarre Carroll, etc... sure. Against LeBron or Durant, probably not.
