That's not a good trend, though Dean also looked ok OOC but then reverted to form so what to do, right?

I like Will but it as everyone is saying, he falls off dramatically against better competition. We need some better post players.

He's a 7-footer but he does not rebound and he does not defend. I was yelling at the screen multiple times while he let's buy drive by him consistently while not contesting the ball at the rim and seems almost feeble in going after rebounds.

IMHO to overcome that you have to be a tremendous asset offensively. He does not meet that standard.

Dean at least puts in some concerted effort in defending and boarding but he's still not all that good at those things either.

At this point I'm all for Reed and Fountain down low, they don't board or defend all that well either but they do it a hair better and will give us a bit more defensive versatility and scoring upside.
