Powe to the Peopl

Nor'Easter drops Kapono, picks up Powe

Kapono has been discussed; not much has changed for him, except that he was awful on Wednesday (0-6). When Kapono can't shoot, he's not of much use.

Leon Powe is quite intriguing - He's a fabulous rebounder and a fine low-post scorer. He has two problems - (1) He's Kevin Garnett's backup, and (2) he gets into foul trouble rather quickly. He could get 10/6 pretty easily, however.

Judgment: We're not so sure that Nor'Easter needs another big man - boards don't look like a pressing need. On the other hand, they are strong enough overall to wait on a few high-upside gambles, and we do love Powe's upside.
