    Well Dwight's more of a PF playing C, like Tarik. So he'd struggle against actual Centers like he's always had.

    Soft indeed. Kobe would just pluck the eye out and keep playing with his good one. AmIright?

    He can play if he wanted to IMO, but one elbow or hand in that area again with decent force and ish can hit the fan. Warriors are weak at the 5 spot, they're going small quick.. unless Zaza keeps up the tradition where someone always seems to have an effing breakout game against us lol.

    Randle and Nance gonna have fun with Draymond. They both got a quickness advantage, I think Nance plays him better because of his length and craftiness .

    Mozgov is filling that Bogut role well. He doesn't play a whole lot but he sets the tone defensively when he's out there. I do wish we would post him up more, he has the skills to get you a couple baskets.

    Huge body on the picks and a good roll man too. We are gonna need him when we play a team that doesn't go as small as the Warriors.

    Moz is ambidextrous. Nice catch for a lefty slam off a lob from Russell last night. He's also a good passer from the high post hitting a cutting Russell for a lay-up.

    He's a tough dude, takes a beating and keeps on going. Can't jump yet he dunks a lot, and he works his tail off. Long term I still don't love his contract, but right now he's the anti-Hibbert.

    For anyone still complaining about Mozgov's contract, look at what he's doing for us out there and then look at how much Rudy Gobert and Steven Adams just got.

    It's so funny watching him dunk basically on his tiptoes. He really does not jump much at all. And his hands are barely above rim when he dunks. They should put him in an all-star dunking contest, just for fun.

    Good point. I only mean long term as in 3/4 years it's not gonna look like a good deal because dude is aging and takes a beating. The same can be said for the Deng deal, because he's aging, but his value is allowing Ingram to come along slowly and his vet prescense. But that's is then and this is now, THEN his contract could be shipped off as an expiring, and right now I'll take Mozgov at the same money Hibbert was getting. He can actually finish, he can shoot, and he doesn't fall down every play.

    I'm fine with the contract now,we had to pay someone why not a center who is not lazy, does not complain and go about his business when his on the court. His character as a genuinely good person was the reason he got paid. The young ones seem to like him.

    I liked his rebounding effort last game. Very solid.

    You know I bet Luke could get something from Hibbert too.

    Luke is great, but let's not get carried away
