Which Point Guard Do You Want?

[BrianFromWA]

None of those 6 things helps with that this team needs. PASSING THE BALL TO OUR BIGS.

Sure, it would be good if our PG was all of those things. But the main job of the person whose job it is to bring the ball up the floor and set up the offense is to get it to scorers in position to score. In our case, we have a severely under-utilized big man who has a crazy rebounding rate and an insane fouls-against-him percentage. Our efficiency goes up just by passing him the ball in position to score. And yet our PGs seem not to be able to do that.

That's one of the reasons I'm so against Bibby, and kind of against Miller. Hinrich would be ok. Kidd and Nash (and Sessions, if it were possible) are guys that thrive on getting teammates involved and making them better.

Nash

I'm getting on board the Nash bandwagon. Miller is asking far too much and not worth getting into a bidding war with the sixers (whoose primary goal is to re-sign Miller.) Bibby is barely an upgrade. Chicago and Ptd will not find common ground to pull off a trade for Kirk (who isn't the long term answer). The Bucks will resign Sessions.

I say think short term . . . think about bringing in another PG in 1-2 years (Bayless, Kopenhagen, Aussie boy or trade). But for now, rather than lock up a Miller or Bibby for 3-4 years, take Nash with 2 years. He will take control of the offense, brings a whole different dynamic (not just a small upgrade from Blake) and mostly I could see Nash being effective with Oden.

It is an expensive but short commitment that improves the team next year!
