Don't think that this is a priority for Phil at this point, IMO. I think the guys we have on the team at this time should be able to cover the position this year.

Agreed. I think Grant's very much in the mix playing some 2 off the ball. Might actually benefit him at times by being able to concentrate more on being in attack mode.

I hope you're right about having the position covered this year. I just feel the frontcourt is deeper than the backcourt. If one of our primary guards ever went down, I feel like we'll be scrambling a little bit. I also wish Galloway brought a little more PG skills to the table which would improve overall backcourt versatility. I do like what he does bring though. He's definitely growing on me.

I just wonder if his shot is consistnt enough.

Galloway I trust, he showed he has the makings of a nice SG.
I love Grant, but not sure about his shot.

Gallo looks like he's worked on his shooting, and he doesn't seem to be forcing his shots during the pre-season. Grant is still inconsistent at this point, and that was the issue in college.

Always about confidence, shooting form consistency and shot selection...I think Grant tends to force his shots more than Gallo at this point, and I think he's shown more hesitation at certain times.

If the offense clicks guys will get good looks and the shooting should take care of itself, but like you, I feel much better about Galloway's shooting than Grant's right now.
