    Did MDA learn? I have a hard time believing it to be true.

    He didn't learn, we just have someone competent at the end of our rotation now.

    How many point guards do you need in 48 minutes? Harden and Paul should be enough for an entire game. EGo is only the point if one is out for any reason.

    Hunter is for garbage minutes.

    Then Gerald Green handles the ball.

    Don’t worry the Calvary is on its way......Bobby Brown.

    Should count Nene and Black as one full player.

    I don't like the concept of Green running the PnR, but we will see LOL

    I always like to carry 3 actual PG's. Ego is way more SG than combo G. That's just my preference though.

    Gerald Green: Player-Playtype- Pick and Roll Ball Handler:

    Houston (17/18): 14.7% Frequency..... 1.45 ppp..... 2.9 pts... 63.2% FG%.... 76.3% eFG%.....100 percentile

    Boston (16/17): 15.1% Frequency....... 0.66 ppp..... 0.6 pts.... 35.7% FG%.... 41.1% eFG%.... 23.1 percentile

    Miami (15/16): .. 7.3% Frequency........ 0.84 ppp..... 0.6 pts.... 42.5% FG%.... 46.3% eFG%.... 66.9 percentile

    Better supporting cast surrounding Gerald Green vs previous 2 years.

    I'd love to have Kyle O'Quinn from the Knicks. He's on a cheap salary with a player option next year that he will almost certainly exercise, so there wouldn't be that much of a market for him. Can block shots, rebound, defend, finish, and has a higher bball IQ than Black. Unfortunately, he's not all that quick on the perimeter. Not that Black is great at keeping a guy in front of him, but IMO he has decent lateral quickness and KOQ is a bit stiffer there.
