so if he can learn to shoot and dribble, he'll be a good player? the same can be said about lots of athletic players. thomas absolutely is not a small forward. he's a power forward all the way because he just doesn't have the perimeter skills.
and aldridge is much better. he is a jump shooting big man but he can rebound and defense well enough(especially with oden coming in next year) and can play in the post as well. he's got everything you could ask for in a complimentary big(offensively and defensively). tyrus thomas on the other hand is an athletic backup pf that can run the floor, provide energy, and help defense(mainly shot blocking).
