I believe you overstate his inadequacies. He shot 61% from FTs. Many people defend Okafor's poor FT shooting stating it will improve in the NBA. In 3 years of CBB, Trill went from 37 to 61 FT shooting. I think he can continue to improve. Also, he is clearly working on his midrange jump shot. If he can hit a shot like Oakley would, he doesn't need much more. I don't think they are drafting a finished product in Stein, but a clear defensive powerhouse with an improving offensive game. Although it was my intention to take Hezonga -- he would be a great pick for them, he was not on the draft board. This is the Randle.

I can see if you want to use Wilie Stein as back up to Drummond and maybe for certain small minutes play with him but major minutes? You dont think this causes tremendous spacing problems?
