Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4313448, member: 1414"] Yeah, I don't get this. For all the "the game has changed" stuff directed at me about liking forwards on the team, this shows a complete misunderstanding of the fact that the traditional "point guard" is also a dinosaur position. Hurley used the word "facilitator". That's the current reality. You are either a guy who is good at creating shots for others or you aren't. He is. Newton is. Alleyne might be. The focus on a "break them down" PG is a throwback to ISO basketball. Most shots are now supposed to be created by ball movement and spacing. Only if that fails does somebody need to beat their man off the dribble. And yes, Andre can certainly do that. The motion and passing should causes switches, and the offense should attack any mismatches. Andre is very much a mismatch against both small guards and many bigs. [/QUOTE]
