Wow. Let me ask you this: can this frontcourt win you a championship, or even a playoff series against a legit team? NO.
It doesnt matter if they rank top 5-10. They are small. They are flawed and if they were to play the Lakers, Celtics, Magic, or even the Bucks come playoff time they will be exposed.
The frontcourt is a problem but its not the only one. Perimeter defense sucks. Our PG play is awful. Our bench play so far is awful. They arent the only ones to blame.

Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

I love those 2 but we're 3rd from LAST in defensive rebounding, a major defensive stat. So we're looking at a poor-defensive-rebounding frontcourt that scores 32 pts/gm, 18 reb./gm and 3.5 blocks/gm. That's good but not great.
However, they're not our problem: a lack of a playmaker, a terrible bench and pitiful shooting from our wings are killing us.

My mother told me, she said, "Elwood, to make it in this world you either have to be oh, so clever or oh, so pleasant." Well, for years I was clever; I recommend pleasant.
