Heh, probably not Rudy, but Randle could eventually go and then we'd have a more balanced C/PF rotation.

That is not more balanced. Neither C can play PF and we need Julius' scoring.

Naz can score as a PF. Jaden can play more PF and in fact it might be his ideal position. Jaden can pick up a bit more usage and we aren't trading Julius for an empty chair! Don't you think the $30+M player we get back on the wing or PG might be able to make baskets too?

I don't want Jaden at PF. he will get killed down low. The idea is to play bigger and Jaden usually defends guards. Why can't we trade Rudy and get a wing or PG?

Because as promising as Beringer is, there is no way he can match or even come close to what Rudy does defensively. Eventually he may be a better all-around Center, but that's going to take time.

Also, I like Jaden better as an all-around two-way threat versus a guy that expends so much energy chasing guys way smaller than him. He's proven that there is more to his game than just being the main point-of-attack defender, which requires an enormous amount of energy.

And finally, the NBA rarely plays two power bigs anymore. Jaden has more than enough size to hold his own at PF if he's playing next to Rudy or Joan.

The idea of having one of either Rudy or Joan on floor all the time seems like a great idea. It does make NAZ or Randle expendable.

Rudy is not in demand because of his unique fit on a team.
