akron,
I'm pretty sure they consider Dallas as more of a C than a PF. Koufos was told he'd be playing the 4 ( PF ) and that is his best position with his combination of size and skills. I think they see Lauderdale as the bridge C between Oden and Mullens. Koufos and Madsen are both being projected as 4's because of their outside shooting. Dallas is an inside power guy more suited for the 5 ( which is the one-in in the 1-4 Matta has been using ).
Not that they won't offer Frease and take him as well. With Oden, Twig and Hunter all possibly leaving after the 07-08 season we may see the staff sign 2 C's.
