AB is clearly the PG y'all so silly

I'm starting to question whether Cole Anthony is an NBA-level player.

Position != Role

Right now? He's a wing who sometimes dribbles the ball up past half court. I don't know if it's because they don't trust him or he doesn't trust himself, but he initiates basically no sets.

The idea of handing over the "point guard" role to him next year is not really feasible if they don't start letting him or forcing him to actually do stuff with the ball.

I'm not going to lie, I'm so confused what we're doing for him. I have not seen this kid try to do anything with the ball.

His handle isn't that tight yet, and the NBA is trending away from pure PG play anyway.

He also has to give them a reason to collapse if he has the ball, i.e. driving strong and being a strong finisher or big time P&R threat.

I think over time he'll naturally just have the ball in his hands more.

Apparently he is a 36.9% 3 point shooter--I'll take it!!!

I really do appreciate AB defending the 3 point line.

I don't disagree with this, but you have watched the games as much as I have.

He's basically playing/being used like a 3&D wing. There's been basically zero... anything... on the ball. He doesn't initiate anything ever.

Interior defense just has not been very good. But bench is scoring

Porter Jr... Wow

The squad looks to have a very serious demeanor.. credit to Mosley.

Great defense other than AB getting cooked

Yeah he really just bumps the Mobleys, wemby and the other bigs away. Qlso he is too quick for the lumbering behemoths as well.
