But all these players mostly play the PG position, Einstein. Instead of trying to "own" people in this thread, tell me why in Gods name would we need a Jason Terry or Leandro Barboa on this team (which Gordon is not btw, but I digress)? Why do we need another scoring guard in love with the outside shot? Do you have any idea on this team's needs?
Dude I totally agree with you on all accounts, especially the owning part.
I already stated I like him way better than Jamal. I already explained what my theory was if we kept the pick. You take BPA @ 6, or player of need, or both if the criteria fits. I feel Gordon was the BPA on the board @ 6. I'm cool with people disagreeing with me on this and he's not the only player I feel was BPA over Gall-Atari @ pick 6. Some people didn't want Gordon under any circumstance that's fine.
Jason Terry has played alongside Harris and Kidd the past 3yrs as SG. We're talking about them playing basketball at a given position at their height for any given period of time. You don't think EG may see some time at PG from time-to-time even if it's for short stretches
Barbosa Ditto I mean that is the reason Banks was signed by D'Antonio right? Matter of fact this last season they made a statement in the press saying Barbosa isn't a point guard.
Ben Gordon plays next to Hinrich and/or Duhon ast 3yrs as a SG
A.I. is a SG but can play either position played SG for several yrs next to Eric Snow
Monta Ellis plays SG next to Baron Davis
Arenas plays point but plays as a 2, Antonio Daniels played heavy minutes at the 1 while Arenas would play the 2.
Bottom line if you're too short to play the position, you're too short to play the position. I mean what is going to happen to Gordon? Is he going to get his shot blocked all the time? Isn't Beasley too short to play power forward?
