Marc Gasol is probably the best center in the league right now. I don't think that you can bank on finding another one of him.
Well I'm aware of that as I said: "The Grizzlies post presence would be hard for any team to duplicate".
However, I'm trying to be a little more abstract: I'm talking about team philosophy, roster building, the "type" of players we want to surround AD with, the style of play we want. We're going to need to start picking up a "type" of player and mold the team in that direction.
I know we aren't going to just go find the next Marc Gasol.

I don't think this is how roster building operates. You don't pass on talent to try to fit holes.
Really, look at the teams that won titles in the last 10-12 years. Everyone except the Spurs just accumulated talent and relied on that talent and the coach to find the best way to play together.
I don't think trying to emulate the smartest FO in the NBA is a feasible option btw.
