    They have the twins, the other guy, and JV right?
    One twin is center and other is PF/C ( but I think they both play PF and C ) then JV, the other guy and Motiejunas from Rockets.

        "Valanciunas represents a new synthesis: big and skilled enough to punish smaller defenders, but still quick and active enough to survive in a more wide-open game. He’s the perfect big man for a small-ball lineup with four shooters on the perimeter. If there’s only one defender in the paint, he should as big and athletic as humanly possible. As long as Valanciunas continues to develop defensively, he can be paired with a Ryan Anderson-type for maximum spacing."

                  Exactly, Novak can actually space the floor. Bargs can't hit 3's at a high enough % to space the floor.

                        Easy there big fella. Let's rein it in little with JV. I am pumped about the possibilities. But let's give him the first 20-30 games to show us where he is before we start putting too much pressure on him.

                        • If he can out play Pekovic then I will agree he has a chance to become an all star.
                          Last year, Pekovic's physicality really did a number on him, we'll see what happens this year.

                            I think games against guys like Pekovic were a big reason why he added the 15-20lbs of bulk. Will make a world of difference. His game has always been that of a 'bruiser', but he didn't have the body for it. Now he does.
