Asik is ok in p&r, because he gets Harden and Lin free with his picks. He's not going to do anything on a roll to the bucket, but that's fine. Those guys can either finish in the lane or kick to a shooter. Asik can crash for the offensive board.
I am going to defend the Asik signing, because I think you're wrong. Lin? Eh, I get why they did it, but not a great decision so far.

I think what a lot of people are missing, is that a lot of the attitude problem Howard has was with the coaches. He thought he knew more. There is no way in hell he can think he knows more about playing the big position than his head coach now, or the guy they have helping him this summer in Hakeem. He will be fine.
