re: Dell Demps Q&A(Pelicans.com)

What Asik does well doesn't show up readily on the stat sheet, and what he does poorly makes people question how he's even in the league. There also a gross underrating both of the importance of rebounds to a team, and the difference between a good rebounder and a top 5 rebounder. Even though I get the value of what he does well, I do question the opportunity cost of a center that can't finish and a team full of penetrating guards. If we don't get Houston Asik this year, we'll probably regret signing him to such a long deal, even if it was structured to be able to stretch him after 3 years.
