Just because a player is listed at a position doesn't mean or make a person right for that position. Josh Smith on this team woyld be PF, on Boston he would be a PF,
I guess I can counter your point by saying just because we have a weakness at PF, and not necessarily at SF, it doesn't make him right for the PF spot. Does he play like a PF though, honestly? He's a slasher who can sometimes get hot from beyond the arc. He defends well on the perimeter and gets a decent amount of boards. He doesn't work down low, doesn't post up all that much and when he plays D, he's usually covering one of the more athletic players on the court. You tell me what makes him "right" for the position that I can't seem to get.
