    Sac needs a PG.

    Beno Udrih/Luther Head are more suited for the bench.

    They are way stronger at C (Cousins/Dalembert) than they are at PG.

    If the Kings are committed to Reke at SG, they cannot have a PG that needs the ball in his hands a lot. They would be better off getting a SF worth a dime or figuring out what kind of PF they want to play next to Cousins.

    I'm sure Irving will be good, but IMO Brandon Knight will be the better choice. He is more aggressive, has a better shot, 6-3 and with almost equal PG skills.

    Not even close. Knight is a scoring point guard. Irving is a pure point guard.

    Anyways, Irving's shot is more than legit. Knight is just a better scorer.

    I was trying to compare the two early in the season but that ended when Irving got hurt. From what I was able to see, Knight is the better defender as well.
