Chris Marcus showed he could make some post up baskets and take a bump,
but he's slow like Big Country/Macculloch, unpolished, low energy, no
hop, and has had injuries.  Didn't look like he had the lateral movement
or quick jumping needed for the Obrien defense.

Lang on the otherhand is also a heavyweight, but has a little agility
like Olowakandi, Eddy Curry, Brendan Haywood.  

I'd make sure Podkolzine (the 7'4") guy shows mobility/upside in
workouts before considering him.

Rick Rickert is the bigman who will surprise people and have a looong
NBA career.  He has a rep for the jumpshot like Ferry/Garrity, but the
difference is he's a tough fiery kid and is something to watch in the
post (He was taking hits from Sweetney and pulling out Mchale moves I
haven't seen from anyone in years).  He has a little mobility, is
polished(to contribute early like Troy Murphy), and has room to bulk up.
If Collison and Sweetney are gone, Rickert would be a good Celtic.
