Our ideal PG 

Post#2 » by jbone » Tue Apr 15, 2008 3:40 am

hammond said a PG and a C are the most important pieces and i think we know bogut fits hammonds bill at C and mo will doe not at PG.

not many PG's out there that defend well,are team oriented,fairly young(30 and under),and can score some.

one that may be availible is Kirk hinrich, i dont know if we have what it take to get him seeing as how the bulls could use a guy like bogut and were not giving him to the bulls, besides that i would be open to anybody, but most of our players are not what the bulls need, however i would imagine when hammond decides we need a new pg, he will look at guys similar to hinirich.

not a true leader, but can lead by example from his unselfishness and his tenacity on D, can score some not quite like mo, but effecient enough guys have to guard him unlike TJ. and he has size something billups has and mo lacks.

what do you guys think?ideal?any chance of getting him?

I'd rather go through the ups and downs with Sessions than have Hinrich.

i'd say he's far from ideal

other than not knowing if this season is a fluke or the future, we want a penetrator and hinrich just isn't that. the defense would be nice though

I say we get a vet at PG who can come in to contribute, but still allows Sessions to develop. Sessions has potential to be great in this league and we can't hinder that...he's been the lone bright spot down the stretch for this team.

I think a veteran PG, legit 3, and tough 4 are the first and most important things that Hammond should address.

Edit: Of course this is all assuming that Mo is gone in a few months. I'd say there's less than a 10% chance that he's still on our roster next season.

wow you guys really are on the sessions trip i mean i like him sure he has done nice things but, do you really see a championship starting 5 with sessions as your PG, i mean unless we get allen and kg to go along with redd like rondo was able to do, but sessions is not the future PG for the bucks.

I like Sessions a lot but am far from convinced that we should bestow him our PG of the future if we have other good options. However, I do think that he's more than eanred the chance to play big minutes next season.

this is why I think a guy like hinrich wouldn't be too risky since he's a PG who can't play much SG.

Chicago doesn't want him, why should the Bucks?

I've always liked Hinrich a lot. However, I don't think he's a good fit for the Bucks.

Considering the facts that our shooting guard can only create shots for himself and that our small forwards can only create shots for whoever they're guarding, we need our point guard to be able to create for others.

Hinrich would be perfect next to wings that are able to create shots for themselves and others on the team, guys like Joe Johnson, Kobe, or LeBron. That way, he can focus on playing lock down defense, knocking down shots on offense, and playing the overall smart game he's capable of playing.

The odds are 99 to 1 the Bucks aren't championship contenders next year anyway. Sessions has shown enough that if Hammond can get something useful for Mo, that the Bucks can compete with Sessions starting at PG. If Sessions really plays great, then maybe he stays the starter, otherwise, he can be a stopgap who allows the Bucks to acquire other positions and get a PG star when the opportunity strikes.

That said, Sessions doesn't have to be spectacular. The Lakers won with Fisher, the Bulls with whomever. The odds of winning a championship with Mo & Redd are probably less than with Sessions and Redd, because Mo's flaws detract from the team as a whole more, by denying opportunities to others - and duplicating Redd's flaws.

Raymond Felton?

I'd try to get Felton and Okafor from Charlotte...what do you think about that?

I'd rather ride Sessions for a season and if it doesn't work, so be it, and get another good pick and find a PG then rather than overspend on somebody.
