He might not be the the second coming of Bill Russell but he is legit and he is their last/only chance at a decent big man, and they badly need quality size if they want to compete with the West.

Your perimeter defense is dominant but that interior has serious issues.

He’s automatically your best center (by default, because of Z’s weak knees) and your starter. Joel Anthony’s not bad, but undersized (he also has frying pans for hands). They could go small and bring him in during sub situations, but he cannot hang with or do anything when the Heat play teams with legit bigs like the Celts and Lakers.
