Or is Marc Iavaroni go with a better point guard in my opinion Kyle Lowry ?

Thank you in advance for any ideas.

Barring injury, "the keys have been handed to" Conley. Iavaroni has said as much several times.

You haven't seen them play if you are prepared to make the statement that Lowry is the better PG.

Lowry is a great spark plug off the bench, but when it comes to a true starting PG there is no real comparison between the two.

conley is a better point guard.....

but i'm not sold yet that conley is our PG that we should move forward with.....so far this season he has shown to be a little fragile, timid, and star struck.....

he is young though and has a lot of time to mature....

So far Conley has shown that he can handle his own. Unfortunately everyone is waiting to see him be a difference maker. If he does not show it this season, by having a couple of monster games, don't think it will prevent the lucky Grizz from drafting Rose and getting rid of him like they will do with Lowry. He has the speed and the vision to dominate and he just isn't doing that right now. The Grizz giveth and the Grizz can take it away. It really is up to him to show it.

The Grizz play in the Western Conference which is dominated by point guards, he better wake up and realize he needs to be great and if he becomes that than the Grizz will not be down for long.

Most PG's progress the most from their rookie to sophomore years in the NBA. Just look at the improvement Deron Williams made from his rookie year. Hang in there with Conley...he's going to be a very good player IMO. Now the Grizz just need to add young pieces around him and Rudy. An athletic big would be nice.
