No. But a guy like Dean seems to know his limitations and won’t try to put it on the floor. Again, I’m not saying it wouldn’t have been worth a look. I just can’t say without having seen it that it would have been significantly better.

Frankly, I’m not always sure what LSU is trying to do offensively.

Yeah, man look - I like Dean for what he is...but quite honestly he's not much better than Baker on D, and rebounds better than Baker...but still not good at it relative to the level we play at and the position he plays.

He's as you say limited and if he plays more than 10 or 15 minutes a game that will more often than not be revealed over time.

I just like the idea of trying a more athletic team that can at least give us some more defensive versatility - help on switches etc.

For example at the end last night when we are pressing, we have either Baker or Dean at the back of the press...cmon man they ain't stopping anyone at the back end after a press is broken, at least Reed blocks a shot every now and then.
