    Elton is 6'9. Thats not undersized anymore (if it ever even was). A 6'9 PF is common, not undersized.

    Not only that, he has a huge wingspan. He can man the backup center spot . He is still elite defensively at man to man post defense. One of the best on the league in ppp.

    What are the contract details J.R.? I would have liked him for the minimum but Morey doesn't play that game.

    He's not a full 6'9. Are we past the time of centers pretending to be PFs?

    Thank you, Flash.

    But really, a 6'10" C, 6'8" PF, and 6'9" PF/C. Not ideal.

    I'm also thoroughly confused by the moves of the Hawks. In fact, most teams in the East are doing crazy deals to make their conference worse.
