Malone is really the only forward that is big enough to play post defense against stronger guys without being backed down.
I understand that you like his size, but I see Malone getting beat on the block due to his slow feet, getting giving up a ton of offensive rebounds, and he's absolutely no threat on the offensive side of the ball. Within this next offseason, Epps can put on 15-20 more pounds of muscle and be about the same size as Mickey. To me, Malone is such a liability on both ends of the court.
Out of Matin and Mickey, I think Mickey will be the one coming back and with Victor and Mickey along with hopes of Epps putting on a little more weight the back court will be solidified. I don't rule out Robinson, but it seems like he has further to go in regards to development compared to Epps.

I wasn't disagreeing on potential. For this year, I don't think Epps is an option in that spot. Still think they're different players and I hope that Malone either improves a lot or someone else can step up.
Only aspects Malone brings is size and decent passing ability.
