<< Again do you want O'neil for defense or offense. >>

Both. With O'neal you don't have to choose, you get both. And to respond to the penetration issue, if you had a legit inside presense, this is what you would want them to do. Force them to penetrate. Especially if they are a good shooting team.

Intruder >>

You are also forgetting the fact that O'Neil is not a three point shooter and NELLIE'S offense will not keep the guy on the floor who doesn't shoot 3s. Thats NELLIE(STUPID) BALL. >>

If Nellie wouldn't play Jermaine O'Neil because he couldn't hit the 3, he would be the dumbest coach in NBA history. I'm not a huge Nellie fan, but give him a little more credit than that. I believe he played Bob Lanier, who I doubt shot the 3 very often. >>

Isn't that why we traded Howard for raef. Last time I remembered He wanted Raef so all the big men will have to come outside to guard him and it opens up inside lanes for other guys.

I am pretty sure they wanted Raef because he can block some shots but mainly he can hit 3s.
