Our lack of a strong PG negatively affects all of our offense, and as has been said forces Paulo and Franz into quasi PG roles which they aren’t well suited for.  
 

We can hope AB becomes a great PG but do we really want to stake next season on that idea?  I for one do not.  
 

Positionless basketball only goes so far, as we just demonstrated against Cleveland. We need a true PG to fix our stagnant and turnover prone half court offense.  

Yeah, I don't think we need a traditional PG. We need a Jamal Murray type of PG. Someone that can handle the rock and a three level scorer. Which is why I was high on Keyonte George in the draft. He's Jamal Murray lite and fits like a glove next to Paolo.

We just have to get somebody legit enough to bump Suggs back to SG. I don't think he has the skill set to play PG, and it's hurting the team and his development. I think the best we can hope for Suggs on offense is year 3 & 4 Gary Harris, but I think that might even be a stretch because Harris was a three level scorer back then. I do believe he can become a really good 3&D SG if we get the right guard to pair next to him.

Just watched this earlier today. Bobby always does a great job. I thought it was interesting about not giving Franz a max extension. Suggs and Franz’s extensions should be worth watching this year. Franz cost himself some money it looks like with Westbrookian shooting. I had thought he would get a fun max but according to Bobby only Wiggins, Porter Jr and Garland are non All Stars to get a max that they really shouldn’t have received. He said there is no way he would give Franz the max because of his shooting.

I’ve said this too, but most Orlando fans are too emotional on the Franz case.. 

Its not possible to critique him and it’s also not possible to say he is not a max player.. 

If you argue on the topic, you are automatically a hater!

 

But Bobby Marks is spot on, on his take..
