Franz almost guilty of basket interference on his own dunk.

It's not. Claxton is not worth double the $ of Carter and that's what he would cost.
Disagree there, Claxton is extremely impactful, top 40 potential

Matchup and health dependent.

I could see us losing out in the play-ins and I can also see us making it into the top 6 and beating a team that doesn’t play much defense in the 1st round.

Disagree... on defense sure. Shotblocking intimidator. But on offense? Look at the pick anf roll... we attack the ball handler and let Claxton go cuz he probably cant dribble thatbfar out. And even when he got the , Moe was able to rotate back.

I'll be shocked if we win 2 games, let alone a series. I like it, though

He doesn’t have great BBIQ. I think we overrate Claxton.

for the Magic it would be like "the defender can move and be on the line because of some specific rule"

Definitely want to see more from Black next year. Wish he wasn't so timid out there.

AB's first step isn't elite so he has trouble driving is the issue.

Because your boy Claxton was guarding him (not really guarding, just assigned to him) and left him wide open to protect the paint.
