Pop is looking like a genius with Diaw out there. The guy looks like he retired to open up a bakery but he's really bothering LeBron going to the rim.
Guys like Deng, George and Leonard are who you think of trying to matchup with LeBron one on one as well as anyone can, but maybe giving LeBron the outside but using a big body he can't push around in the paint or driving is the better way to go. If nothing else mixing it up and going that way half the time. I'm getting curious how the Bulls would do with Noah in this roll at times giving LeBron the outside, Noah is way faster than Borris Diaw, longer and just as big. I've seen the matchup before once in a while but not as a major game plan, it's been Deng and Butler pretty much straight the past few years (forgive me for having a favorite team and ranting ;-).
