2-5 years ago i would've said this is blasphemy but their are literally no PF that can potentially abuse Melo with their back to the basket, muscle or height besides:
Pau Gasol
Kevin Garnett
Kevin Love
Dirk
And we wont have to worry about these guys above because Tyson will guard them. The only team we cant even think about doing this on is the Lakers and Timberwolves because Dwight and Pekovic will chew Melo up.
The rest of the PF's are just utility guys nowadays and are just putback and rebound guys.
The only drawback is Melo isn't a ferocious rebounder enough to keep up some decent rebounding #'s that a typical 4 would. So in essence Melo would be like dirk with a few more assists.
