This isn't unusual for Phil's teams to go without a PG on the floor. As I pointed out before he had Harper as his defacto PG for years and Brian Shaw as well. Shump fits that kind of role. It's mostly about having a good defensive back court and still being able to score effectively. The Triangle allows a team to actually play well minus a traditional PG.


A primary reason why I dont expect many minutes for Calderon in that role.

He can start, but limit Calderon to 6 minutes a game and I'm good with that.

I've got a fever and the only prescription is more cowbell!

I assume that was a quarter.

No, per game. Can't be too careful.

Play the other 4 starters 48 minutes and spread those extra 42 minutes around the rest of the roster.
