Pau finished games at center whether Bynum was around or not. He played major minutes at center in the playoffs as well even with Bynum around. TD played lots of center too. AD needs to be willing to significant minutes at center and possibly even start.

AD HAS AND WILL OBVIOUSLY STILL PLAY ALOT OF MINUTES AT CENTER WHETHER HES STARTING AT CENTER OR NOT.

:russ: I inow this doesn't make sense...But Brandon Ingram would of played it.
This is why I will miss him so much, team full of complaining players now:scust:.

AD at his best should be a five, if he wants to be a 4 against certain matchups, no issue

The diff between Charles Smith & Pat is in height, weight and strength

LBJ is bigger than most 4's in the league

AD is the size of most 5 men in the league now. AD would rather defend 6'4 PJ Tucker than 6'10 Clint Capela. These nikkas are not competitive.
Ewing is closer to Charles Smith than he is to Shaq because nobody is close to Shaq. You made a bad comparison. And Clint Capela is not only close in size to AD (6'10"-240 vs 6'11" 250) but plays the position AD is apparently ducking. So if you gonna hate, hate correctly :heh:

Edit: I misread the PJ Tucker/Capela comment but all PFs are not walking around 6'4".

I’m thinking shouldn’t be too much an issue though, just figure out a short term rotation that will suffice until the Mid-season trades open up and try to get a decent center then or at least someone who can work as “center by committee” like GS has done many seasons

You're missing the point. Replace Shaq with Shaq with Dream, Mourning...any 6'10 shotblocking C

I'm not missing any point. Shaq was 50-70 pounds heavier than any center while being just as agile. He's not comparable to any of them as far as physical traits.


Yeah the only people that could compare to Shaq was Wilt or maybe Moses Malone
