I agree he has the body to compete with other bigs, but like i said in my previous post; not much use if you can't cover your man and you're a couple steps slow every time. I mean..The statue of liberty is big too, but u can even swim around it.
Plus, Pop having a man crush on bigs who have range...Thats cuz you take the opposing big outta their comfort zone right? And to spread the floor right? Bonner is less active playing in the frontcourt than bigs are inside..He's just a plant capable of taking 2 dribbles.
I bet bigs love guarding Bonner..Sure he'll hit the occasional 3, but you don't lose much energy which you can profit from on the other end. We've all seen it countless times.
Let's just hope Bonner doesn't have to defend go to bigs (He could idd be useful guarding slower bigs). But again, with the small rotation we have and TD avoiding foul trouble as much as possible, thats far from a given.
