Interesting little debate between Trudell and Coach Miller on which Laker bigs are the best at different categories. Here's how it stacked up if you don't feel like watching the video.

Coach Miller picked:

Scorer - Boozer
Shooter - Kelly
Rebounder - Hill
Defender - Davis
Intangibles - Randle

Trudell picked:

Scorer - Randle
Shooter - Kelly
Rebounder - Hill
Defender - Sacre
Intangibles - Boozer

How would you pick? I think my list is a little closer to Trudell's...

Coach Miller is pretty much right on with his list.

Miller is dead on. My only question is what he means by intangibl? Is it a nice way of saying prospect?

Kind of sucks we don't have a dominant big who is best on the team in multiple areas...but then again at least we do have a diverse bunch

I'd go with Miller, but I don't want to call equate Randle with Intangibles, because that would be calling him a Derek Fisher, a player with no tangibles, only intangibles

Yeah i can't figure out what intangibles means either. I think it's more: "I can't figure out what this guy is good at so I'll give him 'intangibles'".

Intangibles are things you can't measure or are difficult to measure by stats. For example:

Leadership abilities
Communication
Hustle/Motor
Basketball IQ
etc
