I was at the game last night. Regarding Keyonte, I don't quite see him as a lead initiator. I don't think he processes and makes reads fast enough. I think he can play some PG, but he's more of a combo (think Booker, Beal, Dinwiddie, etc.). Ultimately, I think the Jazz would like to initiate from a multi-skilled wing or wing-sized guard. Or maybe the Jazz would play a style that doesn't require a pure PG.
I agree that Keyonte is not a natural facilitating/initiating PG. I like Keyonte, but the problem with him being a combo guard is that there has to be another good facilitator on the team. If that is someone like Collier, then you have too small of a backcourt. I predict that there will at some point, perhaps as early as before the end of this season, be a PG controversy in Utah.
Do we have a PG controversy, or has IC claimed the starting PG spot already?
