Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5350865, member: 1414"] They are different players. Stewart has been hampered by Alex sticking around, shifting him mostly to the 3 where he struggles to defend small quick players (as would AK). He's a stretch 4 and his defense is much better against bigger, slower players. He can shoot 3s, but he also has a nice midrange game. He's so much better as an AK backup than he is playing with AK. Ross has the quickness and length to be a great defensive 3, but in the past he gambled constantly, trying for steals instead of just playing position defense. Maybe he has flipped that switch. But unless his offense improves he seems more like a role player/defensive stopper. We may need that this year because I don't think Mullins is going to hold up on D as well as Liam did last year. Maybe the offensive game comes too, that would be welcome. [/QUOTE]
