If Diara (or Hardnett) can't get position...what good does the height get you? It might be a wash...and if it is....the offense is the deciding factor.

PJ Tucker plays minutes at center in the NBA, and he is 6'6" and came into the league as a SG. Cumberland shares similarities with Tucker. It's not something you want to do 30 minutes a night, but I think Jarron can do spot duty there.
Also, this team might play more than a little zone when they go small.
