PJ tucker got 5 OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS in 21 minutes yesterday. If they don't respect your shooting, you gotta make them pay. In PJ's case, he don't make corner treys as a penalty instead he get those off rebounds since no one around him boxing out. That's way more contribution to the team than what Morris had in the last 2 years already. He also sets great screens in the offense.
I'm okay with Kobe Brown getting all of his minutes, even wanted too. But I'm totally ok with a guy like Tucker in this squad, getting some minutes(not standard rotation minutes) here and there. To be precisely, I mean I want him on a Taysom Hill role in the Saints. Gadget player.
Plumlee is the bigger worry. He is leaking points. You might see Tucker take HIS minutes when matchups permit. His job will be to box out on D and steal whatever offensive rebounds he can. Offensively, just stand in the corner and threaten the 3 to stretch the floor. He doesn't even need to shoot any as long as he draws a defender out there.
