While he's never going to be a monster scorer it will balance the offense in the half court while rewarding Dalembert for his play. I know that by doing this you're running a risk of him taking a shot every time, but hopefully with the knowledge that he'll get more opportunities he'll be more willing to pass it out.
I think teams run into the problem of ignoring the post when they have a front court devoid of a reliable big man. I say if Byron Scott can throw the ball into the post to Tyson Chandler, the Sixers can (and should) do the same with Dalembert.
As it is right now the Sixers in the half court have stagnant ball movement, and poor spacing. The big men also have a tendency to get caught with three seconds. When they get good position in the post the ball should be thrown down.
