Marcin can't defend. He's been really bad for a few weeks now.

All those Warrior hating scrubs are waiting in the bleachers just ready to pounce the first time the Warriors have a bad game. They haven't been able to come out in a good minute.

I had no idea Charlotte was this close.
I don't want to hear "Marcin can't defend".
This is the same Marcin who was playing 35mpg when Washington was destroying everybody.
I'm not saying the guy has been good these last few weeks, , I watch the same games you do, but 15mpg? What changed? Let me ask you this....who is backing up Marcin? Playing more minutes than Marcin? And what is Wash record looking like since he's been around.
Marcin is not Kendrick Perkins.
If he was he'd play more minutes for Brooks than what he does. Marcin is that guy who was backing up Kendrick Perkins while Perkins was used by Brooks night in and out. Basically Marcin is Adams, on that back burner.

They definitely need Dion. They're not the same threat without him.
It's like Memphis without Gasol, they can play and hang, but come on.

He can't defend, tho. His rim protection has been an issue since day 1. Opponents are scoring at a high clip when he's guarding them. It's a major problem. You also have to remember, he was playing heavy minutes because Mahinmi was still on the shelf and Brooks was figuring out what to do with Smith. Now that both of those guys have figured out their roles, of course something has to give. And that's Gortat's PT.
Overall team defense wasn't this bad before the all-star break, but they've been HORRIBLE since New Orleans. I don't care who you are, but regularly allowing 115, 120+ points on a nightly basis ain't gonna cut it. If the Wizards can't figure things out before the playoffs, they'll be in trouble. Randy Wittman was a bad coach, but he had these guys committed to defense. We're not seeing the same thing right now.
I really think that a combination of Mahinmi/Smith can duplicate Gortat's offense next year. Gortat is on a real friendly deal, so moving him shouldn't be an issue. I think the writing is on the wall for him in DC at the end of the year. Probably could have said the same thing once the ink dried on Mahinmi's deal last summer. You don't sign a guy to a 4/64 contract to ride pine. THere are/were big plans for Mahinmi, and hopefully he'll show his worth defensively when the playoffs roll around.
As far as Smith...he's awesome with the mid-range/pick and pop. Now he can shoot the 3 a bit. Which is something Gortat can't do. You combine his skill with Mahinmi, and you'll have a player > Gortat.

Smith/Mahinmi?
On the offensive end, if they can average close to a double-double, that's Gortat's production right there.
Defensively, it's not even a debate.
Dude is SUCH a liability in the paint.
