I agree with this 100%.  Like it or not, this team needs Newton to play well.  He has the skills to do it.  The team/staff needs to work to get him right.  If that doesn't work, I say give JC a shot to run the point.  I like Diarra, but he is so limited offensively.  One of these guys is the answer.

The answer is not Jackson being the PG!  Where are you guys getting this idea from?  Whenever he has the ball on the perimeter you just have to play him to pass.  He can't shoot from the perimeter and he's not a threat to score off the dribble.  He's the easiest on-ball guard there is outside of the paint.  He is much more beneficial to the team offensively WITHOUT the ball on the perimeter.

I don't think playing Sanogo and Clingan together is the solution either.  I understand why people say it.  It's frustrating that two of our best guys have to share minutes.  They have been great, but they're not our problem.  Our guards have been stinking up the joint, and we've got to get just ONE out of the four portal guys playing better.  That should be doable, and it's the solution.
