is finding a player that can defend multiple positions and stretch the floor offensively from the 5 is like finding a unicorn. It's generally either/or. A lot of teams have true 5's and if you get caught with a bunch of undersized 3's and 4's you will find yourself in a lot of bad defensive matchups.

If a player really has the ability to do what you are describing they will be off to the NBA after a year. If the rules change they might not even go to college.

There are 13 roster spots and you need at least someone that can play a more traditional 5. Even if they can't stretch the floor much or defend the perimeter. We already have a number of of combo forwards on the roster and on the recruiting radar.

          Kalkbrenner reminds me a bit of Steven Hill - zodiac6 JC - 5/18 19:21:45
               i never thought Hill was any good - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 20:23:46
                    Hill wasn't very good. And while Kalk may have a way to go - alwaysright MU - 5/19 10:19:36

                                        Jackson projects as that type of player (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/19 15:16:01
                                             he will have to add about 25 lbs - jlbomega MU - 5/19 19:45:11
                                                  Players like Bowers and Lyons both gained - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/19 20:13:10
                                                       True, but Lyons was already a post when he came in - jlbomega MU - 5/20 09:26:22
                                                            Jackson, Braun and Mitch all played the post - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/20 10:54:57
          He is going to Illinois (nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 5/18 12:15:30
               Too early to say that (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 12:49:40

               If they get Fletcher, I don't think they take both - Domino MU - 5/18 10:05:53
                    RE: If they get Fletcher, I don't think they take both - MUKdC MU - 5/18 11:09:39
                         That will depend on what Martin wants going forward - Domino MU - 5/18 11:16:48
                              Be careful, "positionless" is a dirty word around here - Cosmo MU - 5/18 13:41:49
