But when you look at it in terms of picking up a solid rotation player who rebounds like a beast for about as little money as possible, it's a no-brainer. Is he a long-term building block for our post-Duncan team? Maybe, maybe not. But can he contribute immediately these next few years? Of course. I'm also pretty high on Jack McClinton, who is being billed as an Eddie House who can defend. I doubt he'll contribute right away, but maybe he'll surpris...
