I've tried my best to explain the offense and the rational but, at this point, don't expect you to believe me sooooo, I suggest you google it and learn from the experts

OK...This is an extremely stupid argument and I'm tired of reading it on a post that says "Surprise Hero". So, per your own request here is what I Googled and Wikipedia was the first hit. So, here is what it stated:

"The Stretch Four is a term used in basketball to describe a player who plays the power forward position, but has skills outside those normally associated with the position. Power forwards (PF's) predominantly play close to the basket, using their size and strength to provide interior defense, rebounding, and scoring close to the basket. A stretch four is a player that is of power forward size, and usually guards other power forwards. The differences come largely on the offensive end: stretch fours generally have superior ball-handling, passing, and especially shooting skills. This allows them to "stretch" the opponent's defense, creating more driving lanes for guards and more post spacing for centers. Rashard Lewis of the NBA's Miami Heat and Ryan Anderson of the New Orleans Hornets are often characterized as a stretch four—Rashard was originally a small forward, but after his arrival in Orlando from Seattle, he played mostly at the power forward position."

Rasheed Wallace, Lamar Odom and Robert Horry are some others often referred to or where referred to as "stretch 4s". At 6'10 - 6'11" they have the size to play and defend in the post, but have the ball skills to shoot from the parameter.

Now, I'll admit the Wikipedia mentioned Rashard Lewis was a small forward until he went to Orlando. However, because he has the size to play the 4, Orlando decided to use him as a stretch 4 to get other defenders away from the paint.

I didn't need to Google this to find out what I already (and many others) knew, but apparently, it would help if you would take your own advice. How about we drop this subject and discuss something that really is worth discussing!! (I know I am.)

You're a good poster, but this wasn't your best effort. I should know, I have had my share of sub-par discussions. Keep up the good work.
