I agree 100%.  When he decided to come here I never imagined he's be anything but a SG.  Then Ball evidently made a leap and Hurley tried to work Mahaney into the starting lineup.  I don't think that will continue much longer.  He's the backup SG on this team.  The microwave off the bench.  We got lucky with Cam being able to facilitate despite not being a PG.

Diarra needs to start and they need to try a lot harder to run offense through McNeeley up top, as they did Castle last year.  I have more faith in McNeeley learning that role.  Use him like the Celtics use Tatum to some extent.  When Nowell is healthy they need to get him some minutes and see if he can run the team at PG.

It's a challenge for Hurley to figure out.  From a talent perspective I think I'd rank our guys
McNeeley, Alex, Stewart, Ball, Ross, Reed.  Not sure who's next.  There's not a true facilitator among our top 6 players.  Last year we had 3.   So he has to try to get Liam, Solo and/or Ross to own that.  Ross should be practicing at PG right now.
