re: Hypothetical: Pelicans acquire long-term SF, what to do with Anderson?

I don't want AD playing C
Me neither.
3 assumptions and another question:
I think we can all agree that ideally,
1. AD plays PF only
2. Pelicans acquire a big time C
3. Ryno needs 30-35 minutes
That being said, since most of you seem to believe Ryno "cannot play SF", What the fack do you do with him when AD is on the floor at PF? Are you content with Ryno playing backup PF for 20-25 minutes? Because if he doesn't play 3, he can't play 4 with AD in there, and I don't want AD sliding to the 5 just to make room for Anderson at 4.

In all honesty, this team needs to have a true center. AD isn't a true center and his game/athleticism works best as a PF.
At the same time, ryno isn't a SF. He's a stretch 4 and defensively doesn't match well with AD.
I can see us trading Ryno, but the issue is what kind of SF can we get for him? Ryno + DH worked well because howard is a true center allowing ryno to play the 4 effectively. Putting ryno as a SF for majority of the game is putting a circle kog into a square hole. It doesn't work even if you keep on trying to force it.
