The position should be defined as leadership guard.

Anyone can point. Few can lead.

TD is a triangle offense PG like Fisher. He's not a D'Antoni PG at all.

Give me a break.

This is a guy who is going to give you 14/4 a night, shoot close to 50% and play great defense off the bench as the backup PG, 6th man, 3 guard rotations, etc. He's a 30 mpg guy next year. No doubt

but he's not a POINT GUARD fishmike. !!!

Here are the principles of the “7 seconds of less” offense:

1. There are good shots and better shots.

2. It takes only one second to make an extra pass to the player
who is more wide-open and better prepared to release his shot in
rhythm.

3. We want an open shot most of the time.

4. This offense has several plays that are very similar, but each
has a slight variation. You should always receive an open shot
with these sets.

5. You play offense before the defense can get set, that is the
value of the up-tempo game.

6. If you play fast then you will be a low-turnover team and not
high-turnover team. If you don’t throw too many passes then you
can’t throw it away as much.


“Coaching is at one level, the art of repeating and almost
doing the same thing over and over so it doesn’t look or sound
like the same thing.”

It isn’t all X’s and O’s:

1. You must get the players to have undying self-confidence in
what they are running and how they will tire down their opponent.

2. It is D’Antoni’s belief that coaches must devise a game plan
that they know and that they know everything about what their
opponent will do. Players don’t have to know everything. It slows
them down.
