Who the hell is Cyril Girgis? Is that you Ricky?

The answer is yes. He and Wiggins don't overlap as much as people think. Zach is a shooter and Wiggins is a driver. They both need to get better offensively at other things, but their primary offensive skillsets don't really overlap. I also don't really care what the numbers say because Ricky, Wiggins and Towns have all had to step up in the absence of Zach. The big 3 in Miami had overlapping skillsets. It took them a year to figure out how to play together and they were veteran superstars. Our guys are 21-22. I think Dunn and Wiggins will be more than fine as our two primary perimeter defenders in the future to let Zach be an offensive weapon without killing us on the other end. Our defense comes down to our bigs anyway. Having 3 great perimeter defenders means nothing if your bigs suck at helping. Towns and Dieng need to just step up defensively and Zach won't be a problem and will be a great shooter we desperately need. Basketball is easier with a hierarchy and simple roles when you plug a guy like Rush who does nothing in the starting lineup, but the great teams just make players work together.
