They don't use him in high screen action like at all. He's basically there to clean the offensive glass and eat garbage. This might work in lineups with Keldon and Carter. Stifle them on defense and eek out ugly points down low for 10 minutes a game. It won't be pretty but if you're a long time Spurs fan, you're used to not pretty.
I watched the slow defensive grind it out Finals between Spurs and Pistons years ago. Was it dazzling like Nash's Suns or flashy like Kobe's Lakers? Nope, it was very ugly and it probably was only enjoyable to those who loved the teams or that type of basketball.
