I'd like him. Not a clear backup but a top 3rd stringer competing for main backup center duties. Kaminsky does a lot of the same things that Olynyk did for us. It would be great to have a big man who can shoot and pass from the high post once again.

We already have Theis (not typical size, but effective at C in small-ball lineups), Kanter, and Williams. Even G. Williams can play spot minutes at C depending on matchups.

Rather get more wings and hope Tacko can take a leap lol

Depending on what happens with Gordon, if we can get a large enough exception - I'd love to pursue Steven Adams via trade. I'm not sure what OKC is looking for in exchange though.

The C's number one weakness is big/C, especially after the draft with the 2 we got solving alot of the shooting woes.  I would push for the GH S&T for Turner and McDermott and then try for a christian Wood S&T involving kanter and RW among others/picks.  Big/C now becomes a strength with Turner/Wood/theis, and you filled GH minutes with McDermott and Nesmith(sp).  PP replaces at least some of Wannamakers minutes.  Hard capped, but pretty darn solid I think.

Given that Kanter picked up his option, we have 4 guys who can provide cover at the C position: Theis, Timelord, Kanter and Grant. Unless we trade one of the first 3, I really don't think we need to sign another C.

Hate GW at the 5 but do really like him at the 4. He seems to work better when he isn't giving up 4 to 7 inches in height /reach. Timelord will get hurt as will Theis so the team needs a better center somehow.
