Baby or Powe?
Who would you rather see for the rest of this series/playoffs?

While this may be true, I think the answer has to be Baby then right? I mean most people on this board do not even want to see Cassell or Brown on the floor at all.

Why do we have to choose?
I'd definitely prefer that Cassell and Brown don't see a minute in Cleveland, but they're "veterans" so they "know how to win on the road." They have "playoff experience." Powe and Davis merely have more "talent" and "athleticism" which isn't really anything you want on a winning basketball team.

I actually like PJ in there, he really gets some tough boards and has some length. He's kind of a destitute man's KG in there.
Baby seems to have one thing going for him this series; he has the strength to finish whereas Perkins/Powe/PJ and to a certain extent even KG are missing or getting blocked on the bunnies. Or even more often, getting fouled and then missing the FT's.
Actually more than the strength to finish, he has the width to keep guys away from him while he finishes.
Still, you'd think Powe deserves some run. But Davis was huge tonight, until he threw the ball away trying to get it to PJ.

Powe is a slightly better offensive rebounder, and Sam I am is in full on chuck mode and wont get the ball to baby when he is open. PJ brown showed that he isnt really looking for Baby's nice passes tonight when he let a nice pass by baby fly out of bounds becuase he didnt realize baby would swing it so fast.
So it really depends who is out there with them, Garnett and Baby Play off eachother well but Baby needs a shotblocker out there with him.
