Powell ranking as high isn´t a suprise. In his given role as a 20 min per game big he has been better than most fans want to acknowledge. Just looking at the last season he actually lead the Mavs in raw +/-.
Funny that you mention EPM. Guess who leads the league on defense.
The crazy thing is that I love Caruso for the same reasons you do, and am not as much of a fan of the kind of player Hardy is. I never would have guessed that I would be arguing against Caruso in any BB related discussion. But the reality is that Caruso is a 29 year old role player and Hardy is a 20 year old with massive upside.
