Nene, PF or C?


Look at the following picture everyone..

Is this man a true center, or has he been pretending to be one all along? That is the talk around Denver stiffs, and many argue that Nene should be moved to PF, and a taller 7 footer should come in to anchor the 1, while Nene should switch to the 2 (forget about Kenyon Martin for the time being) and imagine that, a big and physical front court, one that would surely be better at rebounding, where we are below average from the rest of the league. With our guards situation pretty much one of the best in the NBA right now, our front court is the main issue at hand and who honestly thinks that Nene would not benefit from moving to PF? Well some argue that Nene has been asked to do too much, despite averaging a mediocre 9 rebounds a game, and to be fair Nene has pretty much been a center his whole career, even though he himself believes to be a PF more than a center. Now from what I gather, most of the people who consider him a center thinks he should be traded, while those who consider him a PF want K-mart and Jr smith to be traded in a deal for a legit 7 foot center.

Now, if you asked me If I think that how we deal with the 1 and 2 positions this offseason will make or break our "championship aspirations" I would say without a doubt. Readers such as Nohoops believe Nene to be a C and from what I gather, Melo should work on his rebounding himself which is a fair and safe assessment. I on the other hand say we should go for broke and trade JR and K-mart in a deal for an above average center from a team willing to tackle K-mart and/or Jrs monster contracts.

So, what do you all think?
