Good question.....unfortunately, I dont know what the answer should be. They are both quality back-ups, IMO. I think they both bring different things to the table...they both have their individual strengths and weakenesses. I think a lot of it will be a scenario based decision....depending on the type of team we are playing ,etc.

For right now, with Deron out, I would stick with Ronnie P starting and Brevin Knight coming in with the second unit. I thought it worked well tonight, so until it is proven ineffective, I vote to stick with it.

Honestly, Im happy no matter what. Its just nice to know that when a situation arises that Deron is hurt, unavailable, etc...that we have 2 quality guys waiting in the wings.

Price. I think he is elite, in terms of being a backup PG. He is very quick, has a good shot, and adds a different dimension to the game when DWill needs some rest. He had some great plays tonight, but isn't quite as locked down with the ball as Knight. He basically keeps the offense flowing better than Knight though.

Knight is good to have around, because unlike Hart, he can come into a game if he has to and not completely suck the offensive life out of the team. He doesn't turn the ball over a lot, which is great to have as Deron and Ronnie tend to have some problems with that occasionally.
