I think many of us believe we need another big. I feel strongly that instead of seeking a backup PF we should move Naz and try to sign another C. Looking for other opinions.

Can Naz switch on starting wings? Because that seems like a key quality today's PF should have, and Naz doesn't seem quick enough laterally for that.

I think Naz for sure is a center. That doesn't mean he can never play PF, but I wouldn't want him in a situation where he is only playing PF.

Follow up question then. If Naz starts with KAT, MCD, and two more (Dlo, Beasley, Ant, pick 2,) does KAT play the PF and Naz the C?

Also does anyone doubt that Naz is good enough to start?

When Towns and Reid have shared the court, Towns is usually the one chasing guys around the perimeter. Call that whatever you'd like.

Reid is such a bargain but I wish he wasn’t so bad defensively.
