    the distinction, imo, is clear.


    small forwards usualy have the absolute ability to play both on the perimeter and on the block.

    power forwards lack the perimeter ability.

    I agree with all of these except Gooden. He has a nice post up game and likes to play inside. Also a pretty good rebounder.

    Tyson Chandler - PF (just needs to develop)
    Stromile Swift - PF (just needs playing time)
    Antoine Walker - SF (I don't care how big he is)
    Antawn Jamison - PF (at least that's his best position)
    Rashard Lewis - SF
    Drew Gooden - PF (no question with him in the East)
    Corliss Williamson - SF

    The point is that we are suposed to say if we think they are sf _OR_ pf, right?

    So it's a little stupid when you say pf/sf? :p

    These are pretty much clear...

    How about those tricky Euros though?

    Dirk?
    Pau Gasol?

    I think a case can be made for both of them at either position.

    Rashard Lewis? Hell, most people think he's a shooting guard...
