    Has Rudy T tryed playing Francis at the SG position at all this season?
    Just wondered if he had experimented with it and if so how it worked out.

    yeah he has.. He sometimes puts Drew at the 1 and francis at the 2.

    Its ok but i think francis is better at the one. When playing the one, you have to be able to get the other players involved.. Francis does that so well and he is a great ball handler.

    I think I read several articles that one of the reasons Francis didn't want to go to Vancouver was they had Bibby. He would have been a 2 guard and he Wants to be a point guard.

    With his talent and the shortage of good point guards, if thats what he wants lets leave him right there.

    We have a potentially great PG, let's keep it that way.

    I don't mind him playing a few minutes at SG, every once in a while, but we've never even had the potential at the PG that we do now.

    Dreamer I feel the same way about playing Francis at PG.We have FINALLY got a good point guard,so let him play PG :)

    The reason I asked about him playing SG is that I was going over news articles from when he was drafted and he said he didnt want to play SG because he was a PG (With the Grizz).I just wondered if Rudy has given him a go at SG.
