And, I’m optimistic about it, too. I just hope people understand that playing DJJ basically means Kleber or Williams being the biggest guys on the floor. Can’t stress this enough: he really can’t be played with Powell or Holmes. I think that’s more than fine, but I think a lot of folks around here are going to be pissed at how small Dallas plays upfront.
I think this is a little overstated. He probably will be most effective as part of a small ball front court, but I think you can get away with some minutes of him playing a traditional wing. He will be a hit to spacing in the half court, but I think it can be somewhat mitigated by camping him out in the left corner, where he shot over 40% each of the last three years. I mean, we played Frank over 10 minutes a game with his sub 50% true shooting because of his defense.
