A mid-level move that may have better than mid-level consequences. Will likely help the team's fit. Good fit makes the individuals better.
I assume that there are at least 14 players the Bucks would like to have. If so, dropping 2 slots matters little.
Agreed. Dalembert gives us the potential of having a good defense next year, as opposed to a putrid one again.
That was essential if we really expected to win now with a BJ / Ellis backcourt.
And regardless of that, if another move is coming up, it will be made in the context of how we no longer have a gaping wound of a hole at center.
