    For some odd reason, when I look at Mickael's brother, I think of a little taller and lankier Charles Barkley. As for offense, I don't know if Florent can fit the bill but if gets stronger he could possibly play the 4 defensively.

    Everyone on the team has to be able to play defense and if you are too slow at least try to contest shots. I see so many open look shots given up by the Warriors it's just disgusting. Defensive stops lead to scoring runs and they just need to have more teamwork on getting other teammates open on offense. Jrich/Dampier pick and roll or something. Or at least one guy initiating the pick and roll that can create and have a chance to outsize or outquick their opponent.

    Did you see our defense yesterday at times? Granted, they played well most of the game, but there were lapses. I saw Ginobili waltz right down the lane for an uncontested layup... these kind of plays I can't understand.

    Yeah I forget who was on the floor that time. I think it could have been Richardson's guy because Pietrus was always guarding Parker since he's the quickest, biggest threat on the drive. But yeah Richardson is the other defensive problem, but at least he's athletic enough to do a couple things to make up for his slow lateral movement.
