That game with Houston exposed their D earlier on when Yao was just destroying them down low (though he does that to most teams, this was disgustingly easy). I don't think they're a player away from being special, but a centre IMO is definitely what the doctor ordered.
They really do get exposed against big guys. Not even just guys like Yao and Garnett but virtually any of the league's power forwards give them fits. Rosho does an alright job but isn't out there for big minutes. Meanwhile Bosh and Bargnani are both tall and skinny. Humph gives it his all but lacks talent and can't play big minutes either.

When the tough get going the Raps get owned!!!
