I still think Shumpert is a better shooting guard but I never had a problem with him playing spot up PG minutes. He seems to play pretty decent. He played excellent last night despite the shooting numbers. “Whenever I’m about to do something, I think ‘Would an idiot do that?’ and if they would, I do NOT do that thing.”- Dwight Schrute

getting assists and playing PG are not the same thing. Shump has shown very poor judgement anytime he runs plays. Drive and kick? Thats one thing... seeing the floor and running and offense is something else entirely.
PGs are like NFL QBs. There are 5 elite ones. 5 others who are damn good and you can win with. The next 10 are ok and the bottom 10 are guys who arent really PGs in the true sense of the word. At this point Felton is the bottom 10. This was a guy I was really wrong about. When MDA was here and he was playing great the thing I hated most abouth that trade was losing a pretty young Felton for a very old Billups. Man was I wrong... Felton is nothing but a stop gap. I do not view this guy as a core player in any way shape or form. "winning is more fun... then fun is fun" -Thibs

I'm not so sure it's felton's D that needs help. I think our overall philosophy on d needs to change.
I watch chandler parson torch shump, more then lin or beverly torch felton. felton plays his man way to close, a simple crossover he gets a blow by. But thats the case with all of our guards, there either crowd there man or leave to much room. clearly woods should be instructing his team to trap way more then we do, or pressing the ball handler full court.

No! To Shumpert playing PG; he cannot run an offense and we need to stop trying to fit square pegs in round holes. Shumpert is a shooting guard and we need to continue to develop him as a shooting guard. In parts of three seasons plus his college career he has never shown any point guard instincts whatsoever.
Now the joy of my world is in Zion
How beautiful if nothing more
Than to wait at Zion's door
I've never been in love like this before
Now let me pray to keep you from
The perils that will surely come

Any avg pg is going to look extremely bad in this offensive system. felton is an avg pg playing in a system that benefits ISO players. It's a reason why felton played at a high level under MDA, his system revolve around ball movement and player movement, screens and PnR, and a more spread out offense Woodson system revolves around ISO Melo, Iso Shumpert, Iso Jr a couple PnR's here and there..
