I am not too sure about this signing. He will probably have to play at the 3 and our spacing will be horrible. The good thing is we will have good rebounding and will be able to pound the paint.
From what I hear, he takes a lot of long 2's and 3's which he misses and kills the offense. He is an absolute monster inside 10 feet.
Thinking again, I think the signing is ok. We have shown that a free agent is willing to sign with Detroit. Also, we can't afford to not make the playoffs for another year. The fan support just isn't there at the moment. I think we have to field a mediocre playoff team for a few years before we can even think of trying to build as a contender.
