What little I've seen of Plaisted is that he could have some great post moves with his quickness. His footwork seems to be pretty good and with his height, he could cause a lot of problems for the opposition if he gets the ball on the block. If I were Rose, I'd get out some of my old college tapes and show Plaisted how a teammate named (H)Akeem played with his back to the basket.

Hakeem would be a great guy for Plaisted to study. Plaisted's quickness advantage in college is at least as good as Hakeem's was in the pro's. Today's ref's will allow the traveling, too.
