Above all else, Dalembert plays starter-minutes for starter-pay whereas Dampier plays back-up-minutes for starter-pay (that's my biggest beef with Damp...)
Someone suggested Damp & Bass for Dalembert, but that only seems worthwhile if we're really overrating Bass around here...

Damp not playing "starter minutes" was Avery's fault, not his. On the court, Dalembert contributes nothing more than Damp does. Go to 82games.com and compare the two players. The two players are remarkably similar. Like I said, lateral move.
I'm not saying we couldn't use an upgrade at center, but you are seriously overrating dalembert. He's a nice shotblocker and not much more. Dalembert has no more offensive skills than Damp does (except he can hit his FT's) and frankly he's a lesser defender in the low-post.
