Not really. Defensive cross-matches aren't unheard of even when Dirk's out there, Vince has been a 2/3 in the league for years, and Jae was projected as a tweener forward coming into the league. The stability of Vince's place in the rotation, the role he plays on offense, and the fact that Jae's rebounding numbers vary in concert with his listed position are also all consistent with Jae having been called on to play PF in those lineups.
