    Wth is a "real" PG, anyway? If anything, the fact he isn't strictly a distributor will be good for our guards and entire lineup when we hopefully have multiple dudes that can make good decisions with the ball as well as get a bucket.

    Being a good pg doesnt mean you have to be the guy getting the assist.
    Sometimes just coming down and promoting ball movement by making early passes to get teammates involved is being a real pg.
    Noticing when a guy has it going and making sure youre getting the ball to them in spots they want it.

    You dont have to be ball dominant like prime Harden or cp3 to be a real pg.

    Crazy that we had a Make a Wish foundation kid as a PG for 2 years.

    An actual real adult. Are you coming around yet @DaDakota to this signing? This was more than just his on court skills. This was also about simply being a leader for all the talent this team accumulated from these losing seasons. I hope KPJ gets help and somehow becomes a better person.... but good F'ing riddance.

    I like the signing, I don't think he is a true PG, but I like it for leadership and how short it is....I do think we overpaid quite a lot, but it will benefit the fellas.

    I hope that someone from the younger generation breaks out to be our best player.

    In case you guys did not know who the head honcho is. Might as well shut down all the other "franchise players" threads.
