Hes a poor-man's Kevin McHale who can't pass as well, defend as well, or make critical plays as well. As a bench player (kinda like an Antoine Carr, Bill Walton role) Al would honestly tear it up. He could carry the bench against any team in the league.
Post-work like his is honestly a lost-art, and its nice seeing his up-and-unders every now and then. He's certainly a unique player.
Unfortunately, As a starter, his defense is just simply too suspect in games when it matters. It honestly completely pooches us, and theres nothing we can do about it, other than re-sign him in a bench role, or just let him go. Offensively, we don't have the right players to compliment Al. Our current offense would proliferate if we had the shooters who could make those outside shots and open up the paint. We seem to be headed in that direction next season, but our defense won't change in any sense whatsoever. Is easily my biggest qualm with Al, past his black hole-esque tendencies to control the most possessions of a team.
