    Your post did nothing but argue a point I didn't make. I just thought we would grab a natural PF besides Ryno, who I wouldn't even call a natural. I know how D'antoni works so I'm not saying we have to or will, but the guys you listed are small forwards and Tarik Black is a center. I don't think Black would ever see the court as a PF alongside a Capela or Nene unless we're playing the Pelicans.

    Melo what the **** are you talking about now

    Hopefully he means joining a contender and actually challenging for a championship

    no, I simply explained to u what we have on the roster and why there's no need for some "natural PF"

    the guys I listed like Ariza, Tucker, and Moute can play the 3 or the 4...they're not just small forwards...

    U do realize that Harrell played 97% of his minutes at the 5 last year right? He was not a PF for us and was never going to be because he can't spread the floor and D'antoni isn't playing 2 bigs with limited to no range on the court at the same time. Harrell was our backup 5 when Nene was out, and now we have Tarik Black to fill that role. A "traditional PF" under D'antoni is a C if they can't spread the floor, and we already have 3 guys in Clint, Nene, and Black to soak up all of the minutes at that position. We have Ryno, Ariza, Tucker, and Moute to play the 4.

    "I know the old school natural PF doesn't belong in D'antonis system"
    I said that. Today. You're just trying too hard

    nah, you're just contradicting yourself

    so let me get this straight, u know that an old school natural PF doesn't belong in his system, but you're shocked we didn't add 1 to the roster when we already have 4 guys capable of playing the PF position...ok...

    Not expecting one to get much playing time, but yes deep on the bench I still thought we'd sign one.

    signing one would've been completely unnecessary but ok

    I remember feeling good about myself when I deleted Facebook. This thread has reversed that feeling
