That's exactly what I meant, Tucker at SF and Dudley at PF. It even hurts when I write it.
The things is, who is going to rebound if Dudley starts at PF and Tucker or Warren starts at SF? The Suns have a size issue at the forwards. It could get ugly unless Bender and Chriss can produce now which seems unlikely.
Maybe the Suns plan to play Len at PF as well. If so, the Suns need to look at adding another center to the roster.
I like the way it has worked out so far - I want Len to get some time at PF and see how he does there. I doubt he is ever a good stretch 4 but if he can knock down 15-18 ft jumpers regularly, he can play with a low post C and can run the pick and roll/pop. (I'm not sure it's a good thing but he has been trying to make assist passes from the high post of late, we'll see...)
Low post centers are almost passe right now but if you've got one who is the monster rebounder that Alan Williams gave glimpses of being last year, you'd be glad to be old fashioned. Besides, it's always good to be able to play different styles - you will run into other teams that use low post centers and you want someone who has the muscle to push one off his favorite spots which Williams appears to have. I'm as excited about seeing him play as I am our new guys.
I couldn't believe our luck that Ulis was available at 34 - I've been dying to have a PG good enough to push Bled to the bench where he should be and I have high hopes that Ulis can be that guy.
