I thought pollard looked kind of ridiculous against shaq. I thought raef played him better than pollard. But I understand your thinking, if wang went to the hoop and seemed as strong as pollard he would be certainly better.

I guess I am still of the opinion that thte mavs will actually be fine defensively as long as it is a long term committment for the team. I also still feel it was their perimeter and not their defense against webber/divac that killed them. I don't really think that Garnett/Nesterovic are slugs for minnesota, but they didn't have the ball movement nor the perimeter game that exposed dallas's perimeter defense like sacto did.
