let me say this first, Mozgov barely got in during the playoffs and you thinking we picked up Birdman to be our main rim protector? :skip: think about that...:stopitslime: he's the enforcer, like Kendrick Perkins was...

we already proved we can win without a traditional rim protector, just rewatch the playoffs..:beli:

McGee probably isn't going to see a lot of PT this season as well :manny:

Bogut played like 60 total minutes in the finals and often didn't play much in the RS as well. I suspect Pachulia could play more, even if he offers no rim protection, he's still a good rebounder and defender. They'll probably play more of Green at the 5, he's actually a good rim protector but his biggest weakness is him being undersized.

Bogut 's 10 minutes shenanigans would often draw fouls on TT forcing cavs to switch line ups..losing the advantage of a tight small ball lineup defense...

Actually it was his passing that they miss more than his screens...just barely cause his moving screens were godly...but Bogut might legit be the best passing big man in the game...

Rim protection...passing...screens...they lost all this with Bogut and they don't have one guy who can do any of that anymore...

Yeah, he's an excellent passer for a big man. D-West is a good big man passer but doesn't provide much in the areas Bogut did.
