    From what I see, we need another rim protector. We are just giving up way too many points in the paint. When Capela is out the game, we suffer greatly. Who are some good targets out there?

    With how this team spams switch defense regardless of context, there is no point of a rim protector on this team because the opposing offense will just set a pick to take the big man out into the three point line.

    Pretty much this.

    Any team could lure our big out of the paint with a simple switch. We dont need a big lumbering oaf in the paint.

    Or don't switch with our big man. That means our wings and guards have to actually put in the effort to fight through picks like the NBA players before them.
