That's for sure.

I'm just going to throw out 2 more names to chew on for chits & giggles. Ike Diogu and Pops Mensah-Bonsu. The latter is a very good rebounder at 6' 10". The former has decent size and showed an apt to score at the end of the season.

I like the sounds of Diogu than Pops. Pops is only 6'7 and got abused by Maxiell last season. Ike has more bulk but, I'm looking to get a more legitimate 5 in Kaman or Pachulia.

Pachulia re-signed with Atlanta, and Kaman isn't going anywhere. Set your sites lower. It's either an over-the-hill, backup center, or an undersized low post PF, who's even a more undersized center.

Kwame Brown will start at center with Maxiell and whoever they get backing him up. Possibly, Trent Plaisted will also be in the mix.

Now that Ben Wallace received a buy out, if he wants to play, he could be in the mix too.

Pachulia signed a 5 yr deal with ATL and Kaman isn't going to be traded, they already traded Randolph

That list of centers that could 'paste' Maxiell is pointless.

Hes dont a great job on Howard in his career, Garnett isnt a strong player by any means (max is tougher and stronger than KG), and Illgauskas has never been in the paint before. He must be really good if he can post you up without going in the paint.

I still think Pryzbilla and Outlaw for Prince is our best available option. And I think Portland would do it as long as they can sign Milsap.

In response to the title of the thread: By playing three 4s simultaneously and hoping for the best?
