let me put it another way, then: How in the world is wanting to trade Josh Howard for Marc Gasol treating Josh Howard like he's Devean George?

is a better starting lineup than

Kidd
Terry
Marion
Dirk
Gasol

in my humble opinion.
Well, I disagree. I think the holes we have now at center are worse than the hole we'd have at 2 guard. On top of that, as others are posting, it's easier to fill the 2 spot with something servicable than it is to fill the center spot. Consider that we'll spend a lot of time with

Kidd
Terry
Howard
Marion
Dirk
Gooden

Terry will be out there anyway.

we also had problems with our completely immobile center who can't score to save his life. Dirk has never had a center who could produce on offense. Gooden will do that, but it'd be great if we could get one that could hold his own on the defensive end, as well.
