STAT at PF = garbage ass offense, he needs to play center.
If so, how he will defend the pick n roll?! not to mention protecting the rim?!
Besides, Amare doesnt trust his knees anymore to be able to be the primary roller and to dribble in the traffic... He knows he can be more serviceble at PF and playing on the weakside of the triangle for that two man game with Jose or/and Larkin/Prigs. With that, Melo would play more on the strong side, where he can be even better fit as long as he's out best dribble penetriation and pull up J player and knows better than anyone on our team how to cut and move without the ball (because of his quickness and size)!!
So, Amare is better at PF... What remains (still) unclear, is weather as a starter alongside Dally or as a backup alongside Cole and/or Acy (depending on the matchups)!!
