Burke would be best as a bench scorer, but he's inefficient, undersized and not a good defender so I dont think he's even a good option in that role long term.
Finding our starting PG is def a priority.
Is it? Don't each of the best case scenarios for this team entail adding a wing who'd be the primary ballhandler? KD, Kawhi, Khris, Zion, Cam, RJ, Romeo; basically everyone we're dreaming about other than Nas would negate the need for a ball dominant PG. Meaning we'd be perfectly fine with a 3&D PG who can run some PNRs as a secondary ballhandler.
...and with frank's mechanics and how little he's missing by on a lot of his shots, he could well be that guy in a year's time
Yea i would say so. As it stands right now pg is def our biggest weakness. Even if we bring in those guys we still need a pg. They are facilitators, but not pgs. If it turns out Frank can be our pg then even better. I would not give up on him, but he has a lot to improve and its not yet known if he can develop into a good starting point. If he can, then we found our pg.
But that depends on what our expectations are from our PG, no?
Frank’s shown potential running PNRs, he initiates the offense, and his shot is promising...the motion is smooth, if not particular quick, and his shots aren’t missing by much most of the time. That profiles to a certain type of starting PG, one who fits especially well next to a star primary ballhandler.
That’s why I’m not so sure that a PG is our biggest need moving forward, as we don’t seem to be aiming for a PG-dominated offense.
