re: Monty Presser

Did he talk at all about the Center position?

He said he wants a 2 way center than can handle Al Jefferson without needing help and has enough offensive skill to get AD single coverage from the PF. He made a similar 2 way player statement about the SF position, but he also knows it's hard to get 2 way players. Make no mistake defense is still his priority. It sounds like on paper he'd take an Aminu over a Morrow (the Morrow we signed, not the Morrow who ended the season as "one of our best help defenders").

Another interesting point is when someone asked him about job security and if he felt the team had confidence in him he said that's not the type of conversation they normally have, but he did say that Loomis is who he talks to about things like that. In other words Dell won't be firing Monty if it comes to that.

Monty gave AD and Jrue a list of players at their position he thought were better than them and they got pissed. Monty's not a bad motivator, I just wish he would find his Tex Winter.
