I totally disagree with this... I think Tobias is going to be a lot better on both ends of the ball, but he's a totally different player than Ilyasova. Harris is best as a PNR ball handler (in fact, he might be the best frontcourt ballhandler in the pick and roll in the entire NBA), slasher and on post mismatches on offense. Defensively, he's actually a very good rim protector in terms of FG% and next to Drummond, the Pistons have the potential to be one of the stingiest defenses in the league.
