2578333, Tarik is not a threat from the high post or 15 feet out

He does not pass the ball well, always has trouble when he has multiple decisions to make, and does not hit his jumper consistently. Defensively, actually watch Tarik play PnR defense...he consistently backs too far into into the paint and allows wide open elbow jumpers. It's one thing to have more lateral quickness, it's entirely another to actually use it consistently.

I love Tarik but he does not give us the interior defending, paint protection, and offensive versatility of Mosgov. It's not close in terms of overall impact.
