But, as far as I am concerned Powe isn’t “athletic” after this surgery until he can prove it. Knee surgery is very derailing, and he may not be anywhere near 100% at all this season or in the playoffs.
Plus, until Big Z is back on the roster and playing, I don’t think their frontcourt should be considered deep. Varejo is a bum whose hair makes him seem better than he is, Powe will likely be hobbling, Hickson is a bean pole and the new Shaq at the old Shaq. Big Z is a much bigger loss than people have acknowledged and they better hope that they can resign him.

Cleveland’s front line is pretty awesome at the moment, and it will cause many teams trouble in the playoffs for sure, especially the Lakers who have been abused in their two meetings so far this year, it will only get worse for them now with Jamison.
