Jazz have a great Shooting Guard on Roster! 

Post#1 » by HolyToledo » Thu Jan 27, 2011 4:36 pm

The Jazz have one of the best SG on their roster and his name is Deron Williams. The jazz, as seen last night versus the Spurs, play much better when they have a real PG, like Watson, pushing the ball with Dwill concentrating on the scoring the ball. Dwill is also an aweful defender versus small quick PGs but plays SG well on D. The Jazz should start Watson while moving Dwill to SG allowing Price to play back up guard to both positons and Raja Bell should not see the court the rest of the season.

I think you would be surprised how much this would help our team. This team cannot shoot outside and needs to fast break as much as possible to avoid the half court offense where teams simply slack off our outside shooters to stop our cutters and inside scoring.
Top 4 seed in the West!!! Guaranteed!!!

So swing D-Will to the 2, still run plays through him, but now he doesn't have to sacrifice his game in the first half to get others going. Think Brandon Roy in Portland. Deron is better than Roy in just about every category. Playing D-Will at the 2 opens his game up a lot offensively, and since no one else on this team can understand how to put the orange sphere in the orange circle lately, D-Will can focus on his scoring instead of his passing. Earl can pass, but can't score. Makes sense to leave the passing to him. I think this makes D-Will far more deadly. Of course, landing a half decent SG through trade would be nice to. Aaron Afflalo made be an option if Denver trades Carmelo.


Been saying this for awhile. Ever since Sloan actually ran this line up quite often in Deron's early years, but waned away from it cuz Deron doesn't like playing the 2.
