Where his lateral quickness become an advantage compared to a liability. He doesn't lose size either because his 6'10 230. His good rebounder, his a good 3point shooter and his currently 5th in free throw made(DD is second). I think his the perfect 4th with the way the game is trending.

+ Multi-skilled forward whose career was interrupted by a torn ACL in April 2013
+ Good ball handler for a combo forward whose reputation as a shooter exceeds 3-point performance
+ Sacrificed some quickness after the injury, but size has become best defensive attribute
Analysis
The torn ACL Gallinari suffered in April 2013, with the Nuggets cruising to home-court advantage in the Western Conference, proved nearly a two-year injury. Gallinari and the team initially opted against surgery, only to reverse course when the incomplete ACL tear failed to heal naturally. That cost Gallinari the entire 2013-14 season, and he wasn't himself for most of last year. Only after the All-Star break, when he averaged 18.6 points per game, did the pre-injury Gallinari return on a regular basis. Hoping to lock up Gallinari before a breakthrough campaign, Denver renegotiated and extended his contract for an additional two seasons and $33.6 million. Gallinari's impressive play -- and good health -- for Italy in EuroBasket this summer, it's a deal that could prove a bargain.
At his best, Gallinari is one of the league's most complete offensive small forwards. He's a dangerous outside shooter, though his 3-point percentage (36.7 percent career) has never matched his reputation. (Gallinari did make 40.4 percent of his 3s after the break.) He's also a confident ball handler and playmaker who can run pick-and-rolls and set up teammates. Gallinari is especially dangerous when facing bigger defenders in the Nuggets' smaller lineups. Denver has also tried to post him up against smaller opponents, though he really only has a turnaround jumper in his arsenal.
The quickness Gallinari lost after ACL surgery, perhaps temporarily, was most evident at the defensive end of the floor. He struggled, though his size (6-foot-10) can still be a deterrent to opponents even when he's beaten off the dribble. Still, Gallinari was the only Nuggets player with a positive plus-minus on the court last season.@Chr1st1anL

Scola has been shooting the lights out from the 3 but, defenders aren't worried about him blowing by them. Gallo bring that to the table. Also once he gets by his initial man Gallo is so skilled that he can score or create a better shot for a teammate. They could use him like G-State uses Draymond on offense.
You could definitely use him there for stretches at a time.. but he's not starting and finishing games at the 4 for a whole season.

tDotted wrote: View PostEven then... Gallo isn't a PF. He started one game there this season and that came in a loss. In reality, he's just a really long SF. Similar to KD. OKC would probably tear shit up on offense with KD at the 4... but defensively? He's not built to guard or out muscle power forwards inside.

Beyond that, even if you line up a superstar deal, if you aren't getting a center back you better have a second part to your plan because Biyombo cannot start.

Cause so far the guy is averaging 5.5 Pts , 12.5 Rebs, 1.3 Blk while shooting 571 from the field. The team is 3-1 in that stretch against some tough teams. JV probably going to miss another 15 more games. Lets say he misses a told of 20 games and raps go 14-6 in that stretch. Wouldn't that prove BB is starter material?@Chr1st1anL

If the Raps go 14-6, does that mean Jonas can sit out the rest of the season?
