If that's true then why are the Celts hot to get rid of Rondo? And who's been playing point for the Lakers again? And Dallas waited until Kidd was 400 years old to decide he was a franchise PG?
Kobe, LeBron, Jordan, these are exceptional players that make that rule a little looser.
So it's the most important position in the game...except when it's not.
Yea, exactly.
It's the most important for most teams because Kobe, Jordan, and LeBron are once-a-generation talents; the exceptions to the rule.
And the 3 of them are playmakers. Championship teams don't need pgs, they need playmakers.
Huge fraking difference.
Which position is usually the playmaker on a team?
It depends.
For instance over the last 15 years, it nearly never was at pg.
For detroit Billups was the playmaker, for Boston we could argue that the whole big 4 is made of playmakers.
Lakers and bulls were triangle based offense, so the system was the playmaker, but in desperate time, the SG was.
