Haven't seen him play yet. But I do know that is what the Wizard's need more of. The big 3 of Arenas/Butler/Jamison will never be the big 3 of Allen/KG/Pierce b/c they don't play as a team. The Wizards are rebuilding or should be at any rate. In the meantime hopefully young guys like N Young and DM can usher out the proven one and done core.
You obviously have never read any of my kill the Wiz big 3 posts, sigs, etc or why ours big 3 is different the Bostons and not a good big 3.
Bostons consists of 3 players who are pure at their positions and includes a legit two way post player in KG. It also doesn't include a shot first ball in hand SG who is manning the PG position. Very different from what we had.
KG - All Star - Maybe HOF Awesome 2 way PF who can do it all.
PP - All Star - Maybe HOF Awesome 2 way SF who can do it all.
RA - All Star - Maybe HOF Simply one of the best shooters there is.
Plus, they have Rondo at PG. So while people call it the big 3, they really have 4 important pieces.
Then add that it isn't just the talent, it the personalities.
We don't have a KG PF and that's what makes that team go, but we do have Haywood at center which isn't bad.
CB is as close as we get to PP but he doesn't have the one-on-one game PP has.
GA is as close as we get to RA. Actually GA is better but we need to move him to SG.
Then all we need is a PG. I still think that is key for us.
Haywood, (AJ/Blatche/McGee), CB, GA, Vet PG/Crit
I call it a big 5 or a team. We still have to get ours worked out.
Actually, the more I see McGee, the more i like the idea of him and Haywood. I had wanted Blatche there in the past because that was the best we had but Blatche can't really jump well. McGee will likely be an improved version of Blatche, without the off court problems. It could be a while until McGee develops a centers post game but a PF game is something that he can do with his natural abilities. It's more reactionary.
Blatche may end up finding his role as a 3 possition back up off the bench. Kid should get busy working on his 3 ball this off season. Next year, we can roll out some nasty line ups. With Haywood and McGee under the hoop, the weaker D of AJ and CB won't be such a big deal. This is the same thing I was saying about having Haywood and Blatche only McGee is even better. Once he learns to box out, he is going to be nasty. He moves similar to "The Dream"
Haywood, McGee, Blatche, GA, Crit
Haywood, McGee, DMAC, GA, Crit
Haywood, McGee, CB, GA, Crit
Haywood, McGee, AJ, GA, Crit
Any of these line up should out rebound the opposing line up. Crit even rebounds. The DMAC and Blatche versions be would be nasty rebounding and blocking line ups and those 2 plus the CB line up have 3 players each that can pass well.
I can't wait till we have Haywood and GA back. It just opens up the possibilities. This is why it's important to get them back this year. That way we can play with the clay when it doesn't matter.
