Blount has a clumsy inside touch on offense, but on defense he thinks
he's Alonzo Mourning (tries to block all shots), he's built like a young
Mourning also.

Moiso is good on offense, he can play like a big man
(No hesitations on post moves.  Also went to the right once, and swished a
turnaround jumper).  But a suprise is that on defense he seemed to work
hard, knows the angles on shotblocking, and when he was matched against a
guard up top, he got low and showed some shocking lateral quickness.

When Jim Obrien played those two together(or even when he played Vitaly
and Battie together last summer), they had a defensive presence that
Antoine and Vitaly couldn't reach in their dreams.  I think he has the
right idea about defense... Antoine should be a 3.
