Message: [QUOTE="80shusky, post: 2292221, member: 5992"] I'm one of those people putting Adams as the starting PG. He proved he can do it. He averaged 6 assists last year. Gilbert if healthy should be an excellent player next year. I think you will see stretches of Adams, Vital and Gilbert on the floor at the same time but not as a strategy for big chunks of minutes. Vital has intangibles and is strong. He can score, his handle improved as the season went on as did his defense. At this point, without seeing early practice news or early games with Gilbert and Adams on the floor together I think Vital, as I have said before, compliments Adams and Gilbert better than they compliment each other. Adams is going to want the ball in his hands and if I'm Ollie I let him run the team at least early on. If Gilbert shows that he can run the team effectively with Adams on the floor with him I could certainly see that changing as the season goes on. I'm not saying we won't see Adams and Gilbert on the floor together a lot with Vital on the bench, I'm saying I don't think we will see that early on until the rotation gets sorted out and Gilbert proves that he is healthy and can be effective running the team with Adams playing off the ball.
